Choosing non alcoholic spirits
Non alcoholic spirits are distilled botanical drinks made to be mixed like gin or rum, with flavour but no alcohol. Tonic or soda on their own cost less, so a spirit earns its place on depth of flavour and the feeling of a proper drink. Look for natural botanicals, a clear serving suggestion and a dry, savoury finish rather than a sugary one. Pentire makes the range here, with Adrift, its original spirit distilled from coastal botanicals, and Seaward, a zesty spirit that is low in calories and free from sugar. A measure with tonic and ice is the simplest serve, and a garnish makes it feel like a proper drink. Every bottle here met our standard on ingredients and transparency.
Non alcoholic spritz and aperitif
A non alcoholic spritz is a lighter, bittersweet drink for the start of the evening. Pentire Coastal Spritz is a non alcoholic aperitif made with blood orange, sea rosemary and coastal botanicals, served over ice with soda and a slice of orange. It comes in bottles and cans, and bundles make it easy to stock up for gatherings over the festive season. It suits anyone driving, expecting or simply taking a night off, and nobody has to drink something sweet and childish.
Canned cocktails and bundles
Canned cocktails are the easiest way to serve an alcohol free drink without measuring. Pentire makes a margarita, a paloma and Coastal Spritz in cans, with mixed six-packs and a cans bundle. A bottles bundle and an everything bundle cover spirits and spritz together, and a 30 day refresh bundle suits a dry month. Serve cans well chilled and pour over plenty of ice. A case in the fridge means there is always a grown-up option when friends drop round.
Alcohol free spirits and the rest of your drinks shelf
Alcohol free spirits work with good tonic, soda or ginger ale and a garnish such as citrus, rosemary or cucumber. Wine, Beer & Spirits has Quarter's lower-strength spirits and craft cider, Kombucha makes a tart alternative with dinner, and Soft & Functional Drinks has mixers and shots. The best alcohol-free drinks (and what the science actually says) goes further.
