Natural Alternatives to Party Pills - Next Level Guide

 

Last updated: June 2026
This guide is regularly updated with our current favourite natural party options.

Nobody enjoys waking up the day after a good party regretting a little too much of something or a wrong combination. Sometimes the hangover just isn't worth it, especially if it lasts. At Next Level we've lined up our favourite natural party options, so you can get energy or a good vibe naturally, without the heavy aftermath.

Natural ways to get energy

Our favourite natural party options

  • Energy-E: these natural party pills help you keep going all night, with stimulating, energising and mood-enhancing extracts plus vitamin B6. Take 1 pill about 45 minutes before the desired effect; don't exceed the maximum of 2 capsules per 24 hours.
  • Cola Nut Capsules: the kola nut comes from the tropical rainforests of Africa. The seeds are traditionally valued for mental focus and endurance, and contain caffeine and theobromine that act as a natural stimulant and mood enhancer.
  • Mandy Pure Bliss Capsules: experience a cheerful, energetic vibe with these natural party pills, with 6 natural ingredients, so you wake up fresh the next day without a hangover.
  • Guarana powder: more than just a coffee alternative. Guarana (Paullinia cupana), an Amazonian vine, has been used for thousands of years for endurance. Stir half to one teaspoon into a juice and experience a unique energy boost that lasts for hours.
  • Sex-E Capsules: this natural formula with aphrodisiac herbs, including Spanish Fly and Horny Goat Weed, is composed to support intimate moments. The package contains enough for two; take 1 to 2 capsules with water about 45 minutes beforehand, and don't exceed the recommended dosage.
  • Guayusa Extract: a powerful natural plant extract from Ecuador that keeps you alert and energised, with essential vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, calcium, zinc, potassium and vitamins D and C, plus essential amino acids.

Please note: These options are natural and legal, but use them responsibly and follow the dosage instructions. Start with a lower dose to test your tolerance, and never combine them with alcohol, medication or other substances. Listen to your body and stay hydrated.

Frequently asked questions about natural party options

Do natural party pills cause a hangover?

Many people experience a much milder aftermath with natural party options than with synthetic substances, when used responsibly. Stay hydrated and stick to the dosage.

What gives the most energy?

Energy-E, guarana and guayusa are known for their energising effect. Guarana and guayusa give a gradual, lasting energy, while Energy-E is specifically composed for parties.

Are these options legal?

Yes, all the options discussed are formulated with legal, natural ingredients and are freely available.

How long beforehand do you take them?

Capsules like Energy-E and Sex-E are usually taken about 45 minutes before the desired effect. Powders like guarana are stirred into a drink and often work a bit faster.

Can you combine them with alcohol?

No. Never combine natural party options with alcohol, medication or other substances. Start low, test your tolerance and stay hydrated.

What's the difference with the Happy Caps line?

Some products here come from the Happy Caps line (Energy-E, Sex-E), others are standalone herbs or party pills. We cover the whole Happy Caps line in our Happy Caps blog.
