Adding non-alcoholic drinks to your home bar isn't just for the health-conscious; it can also add new and unexpected flavour-options, giving you more possibilities for creating cocktails. Here are the bottles on high-rotation at the Measured bar.

Lyre's Italian Orange

This bitter aperitivo excels in replicating the mouthfeel and flavour of classic Italian bitter orange aperitifs, making it a top choice in the non-alcoholic space. It seamlessly replaces Campari in your favourite aperitif cocktails. Try it over ice with a splash of soda and a slice of orange, or mix it with fresh orange juice and a dash of simple syrup for a non-alcoholic Garibaldi. This versatile option ensures you can enjoy sophisticated, refreshing drinks without the alcohol.

The Everleigh Bottling Co. Bellini

When it comes to bottled cocktails, The Everleigh Bottling Co. is among the best, and their non-alcoholic Bellini doesn't disappoint. It boasts an amazing taste, perfect balance, and just the right amount of bubbles. The beautifully designed packaging by The Company You Keep makes it a stylish choice for any occasion. Ideal for brunch drinks, sunny days in the park, or long lunches, this Bellini is a crowd-pleaser that's both elegant and refreshing.

Free Form Zero Alc Craft G&T

Free Form, a new offering from the creators of CAPI, known for their exceptional natural mixers, has crafted a zero-alcohol G&T that impresses. With notes of juniper, thyme, and rosemary, this drink blends craft gin flavours with a dry tonic that balances sweetness, bitterness, and citrus perfectly. It’s our go-to sundowner, perfect for after-work relaxation, picnics, or the beach, thanks to its convenient aluminium packaging.

T.I.N.A. #2

We love T.I.N.A. for breaking away from traditional non-alcoholic recreations, offering unique flavour profiles that redefine what non-alcoholic drinks can be. T.I.N.A. #2 combines jasmine, rosella, pear, and raspberry, creating a delightful and complex palate. It’s our 'night out' non-alcoholic choice, sophisticated yet fun, suitable for fine dining or enjoying on the dance floor. This innovative drink truly stands out in the non-alcoholic beverage market.
