SimpleNature 100% Pure Vegetable Glycerin - 5 Gallon with Easy-Pour Spout - Natural Pure Food/Cosmetic Grade for Skincare, Haircare, Cosmetics, Soapmaking, Crafts - Softening & Moisturizing Humectant

I purchased this specifically as an ingredient for non-alcoholic cocktails, and it's been a great addition to my home bar. One thing that's often missing from mocktails is mouthfeel. Alcohol contributes more than just flavor to a drink—it also adds body and texture. When you remove it, many otherwise well-made NA cocktails end up tasting thin, watery, or more like juice than an actual cocktail. That's where glycerin comes in. Used in small amounts, it adds body and richness without significantly affecting the flavor of the drink. The result is a more substantial mouthfeel that helps bridge the gap between a mocktail and the full-strength version it's trying to emulate. What I like: * neutral flavor * excellent for improving mouthfeel * easy to incorporate into drinks * versatile ingredient * good value for the amount provided I'll admit this is probably not an ingredient most people keep in their kitchen. When I decided to explore more non-alcoholic cocktail options, though, I approached it the same way I approach any food project: if I'm going to do it, I want to do it properly. As a bit of a kitchen and food-science nerd, I enjoy experimenting with ingredients that improve the final product, even if they're not commonly used at home. My wife thinks it's a little strange that I keep glycerin on hand for cocktails, but to me it makes a noticeable difference. If you're simply mixing juice and soda, you probably don't need this. But if you're trying to build genuinely convincing alcohol-free cocktails with the texture and drinking experience of the real thing, glycerin is absolutely worth experimenting with. The product itself has been exactly what I needed, and it's become one of those niche ingredients that I now keep stocked specifically for beverage projects.

This vegetable glycerin works perfectly for making snow globe tumblers. The consistency is just right—it suspends glitter beautifully without being too thick or too thin, which is exactly what you want for smooth movement. The clarity is excellent, so it doesn’t cloud the tumbler or dull the sparkle. I also appreciate that it’s 100% vegetable glycerin with no additives or fillers. The quality really shows in how clean and easy it is to work with. A little goes a long way, and this bottle has lasted me quite a while even with multiple projects, which makes it a great value for crafters. It pours easily, mixes well, and performs consistently every time. If you make snow globes, tumblers, or other craft projects that require glycerin, this is a reliable option to keep on hand.

I mix this, 50/50 with my favorite mouth wash to make a mouth rinse for dry mouth. It tastes better than commercial “Biotene”, and costs quite a bit less overall. It also works at least as well also.

Best price around. Quick delivery

Great

I needed some vegetable glycerin for my DIY skincare routine, so I decided to try this one. It arrived exactly as described—clear, odorless, and with a good consistency. I’ve used it to mix with my lotions and it works just like I expected. It’s a good quality product and serves its purpose well. I'm happy with this purchase.

A little mixed with water in a spray bottle makes a great leave-in conditioner. Mix a little with isopropyl alcohol in a pump-top bottle for a non-drying hand sanitizer. And it’s a wonderful moisturizer for your skin - especially around the eyes. Gentle, non-toxic, natural and odorless. What’s not to love?

Works great. Great uses
