Non-alcoholic drinks recommendations 14:55 - Sep 10 with 19192 viewsBrixtonBlue

I've been sober for 6.5 months now, and as much as I do still like fresh lime and soda water it would be nice to change it up a bit other than coke or lemonade. Particularly at home (so anything goes rather than being limited to what pubs have).

I've been hitting the energy drinks quite hard, which I know is not a good idea. Not especially a fan of tea, although Green Macha is alright. Heineken 0% was ok but not massively keen. Anything else I might've forgotten? Any weird and wonderful mocktails you'd recommend? Anything else I can put in water to liven it up?

I bet Bloots will downarrow this.

tonic water with a few drops of bitters. ice, slice of lemon, tastes like a grown up drink.

the low alcohol ghost ship is a class above other low alcohol beer. tastes like beer.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

If you like the taste but don't want to get pissed. I don't really like sweet drinks but if I don't want alcohol you're then a bit limited with options.

in general i agree. but i like the taste, and i'd much rather something that is alcohol free but tastes of beer than something that tastes sweet or fruity. but generally leaving the alcohol in is the right answer.

I don't 'get' non-alcoholic beers and wines but that's me.

Do you like regular fruit juices? mean, we're spoilt nowadays with orange and pineapples and mangoes and a billion others we'd not even heard of just a few years ago.

Well done on the 6 months though.

You feeling good for it? Missed it much? Clearly not enough to sway from your goal.

Still writing the blog/book?

probably not for you then. liking ghost ship is probably key to the strategy.

i mainly drink it at home. cold from the fridge it's more to my taste than, say, coke.

Morissons do some nice mocktails in their The Best range. Raspberry mojito, Summer citrus and blackcherry and cinnamon are all nice, and low sugar/calories.

Skimmed is pretty much water though isn't it?

I'm all about the semi - can't stomach the other stuff.

Except when making paneer. Obviously that has to be full fat but that's different.

So many good "alcohol free" beverages around at the moment. However a lot of them don't actually seem to be alcohol free, rather just 0.5% which is close I know but maybe not for your purposes.

Things like Ghost Ship, Nanny State etc.

Are those acceptable?

SB


If they're 0.05 I'll consider them but not 0.5.

You could get one of those water bottles with the separate capsule inside where you stick whatever fruit you want to flavour you water?

My go to combo is half a lemon and a handful of acid tabs.


Not seen those.

Pretty website too.


I got bought the garden one as a work leaving present! Not actually tried it yet. Sounds quite odd - says it's ideal with a handful of peas in it!
