Best no-alcohol drinks to buy in the UK
CleanCo
We love the no-alcohol spirit range from CleanCo, which is also surprisingly affordable compared to some other brands. Founded by Spencer Matthews, formerly of Made In Chelsea fame, the Clean G ‘gin’ is our favourite. They also do rhubarb gin, tequila, whisky and rum alternatives.

Della Vite Zero
A sparkling rosé fan? We were pleasantly surprised with how delicious – and very drinkable – this posh pink prosecco from Della Vite is. The brand is founded by model and socialite sisters Cara, Poppy and Chloe Delevingne. Stocked in the likes of Selfridges, Daylesford Organic, John Lewis and Ocado, you’ll also find it served in some of London’s most glamorous bars.
Price £14.95 for a 75cl bottle
Sea Arch
If you want a non-alcoholic alternative to gin to enjoy this Dry January and beyond, try Sea Arch. Made on the Devon Coast, this clean tasting distilled spirit is flavoured with juniper, sea kelp and samphire, with hints of grapefruit and blood orange. Pair with good quality tonic and a squeeze of citrus and you could be drinking a real G&T.
Price £24.95 for a 70cl bottle
Pentire
Another gin alternative, Pentire is made with unique botanicals which only grow on the Cornish coastline. The result is a fresh tasting, no-alcohol drink which captures flavours such as sea fennel, citrus, sage and Cornish sea salt in their signature Pentire Adrift drink. We’re also fans of their Pentire Margarita and the blood orange Pentire Coastal Spritz, which is like an Aperol Spritz.
Price £26.80 for a 70cl bottle
Noughty Sparkling Wine
If you want the feeling of drinking a glass a fizz but without the booze or calories, give Noughty by Thomson & Scott a go. This sparkling vino is not just alcohol-free, it’s also organic and vegan – and has almost half the sugar content of other non-alcoholic sparkling wines. And with only 14 calories per glass, it’s the perfect answer to a hangover-free celebration. Also comes in rosé.

Mother Root Ginger Switchel
This aperitif style no-alcohol drink – which is secretly good for you – is derived from a long-lost American recipe called a ‘switchel’, which became famous during the Prohibition Era. Mother Root is 100% natural and made with pressed ginger juice, blossom honey, organic apple cider vinegar and a hint of chilli. It’s designed to be mixed with sparkling water or tonic to make a revitalising spritz, but can also be used to make cocktails or hot toddies.
Price £24.95 for a 500ml bottle
