Have you hit a sobriety or mindful drinking wall? ‘I keep buying the alcohol-free drinks on the supermarket shelves and I am bored! Nothing excites me and they all lack flavour’.

You see, it is an absolute delight to see the supermarkets expanding their shelves for alcohol-free spirits and drinks, however given there are over 400 non-alcoholic spirits and even more mixers and sparkling drinks, that realisation makes the shelf look rather small.

We expect to see more space being taken up by alcohol-free options over the coming year which is a fantastic opportunity for the category!

With readily available options still slightly uninspiring however and so many amazing flavours to be discovered, this is why JOMO Club exists. We wanted to make great drinks more accessible and help you find different, non-alcoholic options that focus on flavour and quality, while providing guidance on how to pair them for the best experience.

As a promise, we aim to bring unique drinks that will offer something new for your tastebuds (and your drinks trolley). 

JOMO’s June Box did just that with the inclusion of the wonderful and extremely unique Bodha Drinks. We taste a million alcohol-free drinks (give or take) every week and we haven’t come across one like Bodha just yet. Bodha’s definition is knowledge and understanding and we think they have created something really rather different and can see the perfect occasion for them.

What is the occasion you ask?

You’re having a date night in or have invited friends or the family round. You have decided to order a curry. You look at the menu but let's be honest, you all know what you are having already. You fancy something refreshing and light to sip on. A drink that compliments the flavours and the spices. Although you all knew what you were ordering, you are about to shock everyone when you whip out your ice cold Bodha Drink. 

When Ros and Subha, Founders of Bodha, ate together at work it was often spicy food. Indian, Thai and Middle Eastern. Paired with sugary drinks, they found it completely dulled the complexity of Eastern Food. Until that day anyway. If you don’t find what you like, make it yourself? 

Bodha’s range of Rose & Cardamom, Ginger Spice and Chilli Lemonade offer a complex drink. They choose every ingredient carefully with both the environment and your health in mind. They are low in sugar and absolutely free from nasties - they are the perfect pairing to your meal. 

You can drink completely solo or experiment in an alcohol-free cocktail.

• Let’s think, a spicy Margarita pairing the Chilli Lemonade with a non-alcoholic tequila and a chilli popped on the top.

• How about a spicy Mule with Wilfred’s Aperitif topped with Ginger Spice and garnished with a lime wheel.

• For something more delicate the Rose & Cardamom can be paired with EDI’s Spirited Euphoria with rose petals or a blood orange wedge.

Stock up for your next family meal, we think they will be rather surprised. You can buy and explore the range on their website here.
