Alcohol-Free Christmas Drinks to Keep the Celebration Going
Christmas is a classic time to celebrate with family and friends. But for those who have given up drinking alcohol, it can be a challenging time of year. Most social events involve alcohol, but that shouldn’t mean feeling left out of the celebration. Thankfully, now there are more options than ever available for people who choose not to drink alcohol. From alcohol-free beer to 0% gin, there’s almost as much available to you as those who drink alcohol. Below we explore some ideal alcohol-free alternatives to enjoy this festive season, and how to keep Christmas gatherings inclusive and fun for everyone.
Why Choose Alcohol-Free This Festive Season?
Opting for alcohol-free drinks during the Christmas season brings a host of benefits. Not only does it allow everyone, from designated drivers and pregnant guests to those simply choosing a clear head, to enjoy a lively celebration, but it also helps ensure no one feels left out at festive gatherings. Today’s alcohol-free drinks taste every bit as delicious as their traditional counterparts. Their vibrant colours and great taste turn any party into a fun and inclusive occasion, so everyone can join in the festive spirit without compromise.
Sparkling Alternatives: Alcohol-Free Beer and Wine
The world of alcohol-free wine, beer and cider has never been more exciting or diverse. With these options, it’s easy to pour a glass of full-flavoured, festive fizz into classic champagne flutes or pint glasses for extra style at any Christmas parties. Whether celebrating around the dinner table or raising a toast with friends, opting for high-quality alcohol-free beer, cider, and wine is the perfect partner for Christmas roasts, cheese boards, and sweet treats. These sparkling alternatives ensure every guest, drinker or not, feels truly included in the celebration.
Creative Christmas Mocktails
Christmas is the perfect time to get creative with mocktails. Simple blends of fresh juices, fruit, spices, and alcohol-free spirits, such as a crisp alcohol-free gin and tonic with rosemary or a zesty cranberry fizz with orange, can be whipped up in minutes. Batch mocktail recipes guarantee no one misses out on those signature Christmas toasts. These drinks not only satisfy the palate but also offer the same fun, festive presentation as classic cocktails, making them a brilliant centrepiece for holiday parties. Create an alcohol free cosmopolitan, simply by skipping the vodka, or a berry fizz by combining alcohol-free gin with cranberry juice and lemonade.
The Rise of Alcohol-Free Spirits
Alcohol-free spirits, especially alcohol-free gin, have completely changed the landscape for festive drinks. Their botanical complexity means anyone can easily sour an alcohol-free G&T or festive mocktails topped with fresh herbs and fruit for a sophisticated touch. These innovative spirits are expertly distilled to mimic the aroma and flavour of traditional spirits, giving non-drinkers and moderating guests a genuine cocktail experience, minus the alcohol. With so many aromatic options available, no one has to settle for ordinary soft drinks this Christmas.
Party Tips for Inclusive Hosting
Planning an alcohol-free Christmas bar is both easy and rewarding. Stock up on beautiful glassware, ensure a supply of fresh citrus, berries, and herbs for festive garnishes, and keep ice plentiful. Organise a drinks station so guests can help themselves to alcohol-free beer, wine, mocktails, and spirits with mixers, making it simple and stress-free for everyone. With Fletcher Drinks offering fast delivery of alcohol-free options nationwide, any home bar can be ready in time for every Christmas get-together, big or small.
