The Most Popular Alcohol-Free Spirits This Winter

On a blustery, January winter's day, all you want to do is to cuddle up in front of the fire. And what nicer to have with you than a warming winter drink that tastes boozy? That’s where non-alcoholic booze and wintery alcohol-free spirits come in.

We’ve put together a list of our six favourite wintery alcohol-free spirits. Enjoy most of these warmed-up or drink them cold and still feel warmer and cosier. With one of these non-alcoholic spirits in hand, you can sit back and enjoy the winter!  

Gimber

GIMBER is an organic ginger drink made from highly concentrated ginger with lemon, herbs and spices. It is a drink with a kick that you can feel warm your whole body up as you sip it.

GIMBER is an incredibly versatile alcohol-free spirit. You can add it to almost any drink and you will get the same kick as in an alcoholic spirit. For a fresh, long drink, just add sparkling water. Or, if you are looking for a wintery alcohol-free cocktail try heating it up.

Add GIMBER to coffee, matcha, or hot chocolate, or serve it with boiling water and juice for a delicious drink. The only limit to this drink is your imagination.  

High Point Drinks

High Point, a small company based in Cornwall, offers the world's first fermented alcohol-free aperitif and digestif.

The process of making each High Point drink takes over a month. High Point starts the process by fermenting its own base drink. Next, they infuse this with actual botanicals, including fruit, herbs and botanicals. Choose from either the Ruby Aperitif or the Amber Digestif.

The Ruby Aperitif has a “wild herb aroma, followed by a cool wave of zest and spice." It is the perfect drink to start the night with.

The Amber Digestif has a more wintery flavour. It tastes like: 

“Gentle rolling smoke and spice, relaxes into Amber's signature smooth mouthfeel. A hint of vanilla and log-fired toffee sweeps into a long warming finish.” 

With ingredients like clove, vanilla ginger and oak, this is the perfect winter-warming drink.

Enjoy both of these drinks warm or cold. They are the perfect alcohol-free spirits to get you through the cold winter.

Crossip Rich Berry & Dandy Smoke

If you are looking for more warming drinks try Crossip’s Rich Berry spirit or Dandy Smoke. You can serve both of these hot or cold. Crossip is one of the more established alcohol-free brands in the game and offers a wide range of non-alcoholic spirits.

Crossip Rich Berry, a limited edition drink, is perfect in mulled wines and hot toddies. It has a deep berry flavour with damson and blackberry mixed with cinnamon, clove and nutmeg, with an undertone of sour cherry and hints of wormwood and gentian to add a bitter flavour. Everything about this drink screams winter, whether you drink it warm or cold.

Crossip Dandy Smoke could be described as a non-alcoholic whiskey. It certainly is a smokey, dark spirit and has the deep flavour profile of an alcoholic whiskey. It tastes of sweet smoky lapsang, and pine, with deep fruit, cinnamon and clove undertones and the spicey sensation of ginger, chilli and nutmeg. Perfect to drink in the traditional whisky and coke combination, in sour mocktails, or in a non-alcoholic Old Fashioned.

Noughty Sparkling Drinks

This was the first company to sell alcohol-free, organic, vegan, halal, low-sugar sparkling non-alcoholic drinks.

They are known for their sparkling Chardonnay and their sparkling rosé. Unlike many other non-alcoholic wines, Noughty sparkling wines are not too sweet, tasting almost identical to their alcoholic counterparts.

These sparkling wines are the perfect drink to sip during the long winter evenings. 

Maria and Craig’s CBD Spirit

Maria and Craig have created an alcohol-free adult drink with many of the typical characteristics of gin, but with the added calming and health benefits of CBD.

This botanical spirit, made with premium CBD, natural hemp, sage, camomile and orange blossom, and other more traditional gin botanicals, gives you a refreshing, long drink that will bring with it the zen of calm.

This is best served with simple tonic water, and is the perfect non-alcoholic gin-type drink to relax with at the end of a hectic, wintery work week!
