17 Low- & No-Alcohol Drinks That Actually Taste Decent
WINE

Alcohol-Liberated White Wine
£10.25 | Zeno
Non-alcoholic wine is improving fast, and Zeno is leading the charge. Produced using quality European grapes before being gently de-alcoholised, its sparkling white and rosé have earned praise for avoiding the cloying sweetness that often lets the category down.

£22.49 | Future Château
If you're convinced alcohol-free wine isn't worth bothering with, Future Château is your best chance of changing your mind.

Lower-ABV Wine
£15.99 | 6 Percent
Sitting somewhere between full-strength wine and alcohol-free alternatives, 6 Percent produces lower-ABV wines that still taste like the real thing. Hovering around 6% alcohol, its bottles are ideal if you're looking to moderate rather than abstain completely.

Tomorrow Lager
£11 | Wiper & True

Unfiltered Lager
From £22 | Lucky Saint
Arguably the benchmark for alcohol-free beer, Lucky Saint is brewed like a traditional lager before the alcohol is gently removed, leaving behind crisp malt flavours and a satisfyingly clean finish. It's one of the few 0.5% beers that tastes like the real thing.

Guinness 0.0% Alcohol Free Draught Stout
£5.45 | Guinness
Often the classics are classics for a reason. Guinness has managed to recreate the creamy mouthfeel and roasted character of the original remarkably well, making this one of the easiest swaps if you're looking to cut back without compromising.

Cidre Rosé
£5.65 | Sassy
Produced in Normandy using traditional cider apples, Sassy Rosé is lighter than your average cider, with delicate berry notes and gentle acidity. At just 3% ABV, it sits in the refreshing middle ground between a beer and a glass of rosé.

Low-Alcohol Lager
£2.25 | Small Beer
Brewing to 2.1% ABV, Small Beer is one of the pioneers of the lower-alcohol movement. Rather than removing alcohol after brewing, it uses a centuries-old process to create a naturally lower-strength lager that's crisp, clean and genuinely satisfying.

Lemon Lager & Lime & Sea Salt Lager Cans
£46 | Lucky Saint
Lucky Saint's latest releases take its original unfiltered 0.5% ABV lager and give it a citrus twist. One blends in lemon, while the other deploys lime and a subtle hit of sea salt to create something bright, zesty and made for hot afternoons – whether you're firing up the BBQ or recovering after five-a-side.

SPIRITS
Gin-Style Botanical Spirit
£20 (was £25) | Dirwest
A smaller Welsh producer that's building a loyal following, Dirwest delivers plenty of juniper, citrus and peppery spice without tasting like flavoured water.

The Original Free Spirit
£27.93 | Feragaia
One of Scotland's best-kept secrets, Feragaia isn't pretending to be gin. Instead, it's a bold botanical spirit with deep herbal notes and a savoury finish that stands up brilliantly in cocktails. If Seedlip doesn’t hit the spot, this is the bottle to try.

London Dry Spirit Gin Alternative
£25 | Quarter
