Beavertown Brewery Lazer Crush, £1.60

Beavertown Brewery’s newest IPA just happens to be alcohol free. Rather than brewing with small amounts of malt or dealcoholizing after fermentation, for Lazer Crush the team used a clever strain of yeast that fully ferments the crisp pilsner malt without producing alcohol and adds a hint of peachy fruit. Next comes heavy-duty hops: azacca for ripe mango with a hint of fresh pine, amarillo for notes of sweet orange, and citra for the signature citrus and grapefruit bitterness that an IPA requires. The result is a 0.3% sip that tastes so much better than those godawful 0.0% beers of yesteryear.

Cotswolds Dry Gin Essence, £14.95
Cotswolds Dry Gin Essence is full strength at 46% ABV, but you only need a little bit of it.

Top with 200ml of your favourite tonic water and garnish with a slice of grapefruit.
