If you’re the designated driver this Christmas, we’ve got you covered (in non-alcoholic prosecco). From spirits to sparkling wine, and other non-alcoholic festive favourites, here’s what to drink during the Xmas period. Bottoms up:

1. For a Non-Alcoholic Spirit: FLUÈRE

The Lowdown: FLUÈRE is a range of non-alcoholic spirits made with the same steam distillation techniques used to produce alcoholic spirits such as gin, mezcal and rum, carefully extracting the natural oils and flavours from the fruits, herbs and spices. Unique to FLUÈRE is a pleasant after-bite that is typically associated with alcoholic drinks.

Where: £20 for 70cl. ABV: 0%. Available from: Ocado, Amazon, Harvey Nichols and Fluère Drinks

2. For Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Wine: Oddbird 

The Lowdown: Oddbird’s Blanc de Blancs and Sparkling Rosé wines from France and Spumante from Italy are produced using traditional methods and then “liberated from alcohol” using a unique, patented vacuum distillation method.

Where: Oddbird Sparkling Rosé Wine, £9.99. Available from: 31DOVER, Alcohol Free Company and Amazon

3. For a Non-Alcoholic Aperitif: High Point Ruby

The Lowdown: High Point drinks are a premium range of non-alcoholic fermented aperitifs and digestifs. High Point Ruby has been created without artificial flavours or colours, just Cornish spring water, tea leaves and a selection of natural ingredients from the surrounding Cornish countryside. These botanicals are then infused, fermented and blended to produce a product that is layered in flavours, deep in aromas and complexity.

Where: £19.99 for a 70cl bottle. Available to purchase from High Point Drinks and Amazon.

4. For a Non-Alcoholic Prosecco: Lyre’s 

The Lowdown: With its classic, dry finish, this meticulously crafted, mouth-watering prosecco style drink boasts aromas of fresh peach and granny smith – best served chilled in a flute or coupette. Delight the tastebuds with a burst of fresh fruity flavours and stay spirited with this impossibly crafted, non-alcoholic bubbly, any time of day. 

Where: £9.99, available to purchase here

5. For Non-Alcoholic Gin: CleanCo 

The Lowdown: Clean G has an unmistakable, crisp, botanic flavour that’s as refreshing, enjoyable and relaxing. Made using a complex distillation process that harnesses essential flavours, it has a classic taste, comparable to London Dry Gin, simply serve over ice with tonic and a fresh slice of lemon – with over 30 times less alcohol.

Where: £16. Buy online. Also available in Sainsbury’s and Tesco.
