I've given up drinking alcohol.. was never much of a drinker but I do like the taste of wine, spirits etc. it really effects my sleep now. I don't like sweet drinks (coke or OJ) what do you drink when out ?

Elderflower cordial and sparkling water
Pineapple or orange juice and lemonade
Lime and soda

I have just discovered the Belvoir cordials and now I have an impressive (some might say over-the-top) number of different fancy cordial flavours including elderflower, ginger, blackcurrant - and the Robinsons lime and mint is just lovely too.

Out and about I might have lime and soda, or else Becks/Heineken 0% (Becks is nicer but haven't often seen in in pubs) or af gin and tonic.

When out, I’d probably have an AF beer or something like a tonic with lemon or a bitter lemon. Generally around the house, I’d have an AF beer or a ginger kombucha or just like a fizzy water with garnishes. In the winter months, I’m probably equally likely just to have a herbal tea or a normal tea.

Lime and soda

Ginger Beer - has to be Fentiman’s, though.
Slimline tonic with “ice and slice” looks quite convivial if I’m socialising .
Elderflower cordial .
Drink of choice would be frappé coffee when available .

Had to give up alcohol a few months ago 🙁. I never, ever, liked the drink Prosecco, so I was surprised when I was given some 'No-secco' (alcohol free Prosecco) to find it lovely! Also enjoy sparkling elderflower presse and most of the Cawdons range.

I found most non-alcoholic fizzy wines just too sweet. I love the sharp bitterness of white wine and Prosecco and nothing so far could make me like any of the zero percent stuff.

BigDahliaFan · 01/03/2025 16:45

Lime and soda or zero beer/lager.

isitme111 · 01/03/2025 17:21

Iced coffee

ARichtGoodDram · 01/03/2025 17:26

Ginger beer & lime or Cranberry & orange juice are my go to drinks when out

Boutonnière · 02/03/2025 16:38

Fizzy water mostly
Fever Tree - Rhubarb and Raspberry tonic
I, also, don’t have a sweet tooth at all and so many soft drinks are sugary or fake sweetened
