I got pregnant and all I got was this lousy fruit-shoot

[Mimzical]

Its Friday night, wine o’clock, the pubs are open, and instead of enjoying a glass of wine, with the girlies, I am at home in my pjs feeling pregnant and sorry for myself.

So that I can feel like a grown-up and not have to spend the next gazillions months sipping on fruit-shoots, I would love to hear your recommendations (or recommend-don’ts!) of non-alchoholic tipples. Whether it’s nonsecco, the best alchohol-free beer or home-made mocktail recipes. You never know, we could start our own online non-alcoholic wine tasting club!

Would love to hear your suggestions as have a long time to try them all.

Cheers! (waving fruit shoot in the air)

If you like cider thatchers zero is really nice x

£7.99 for alcohol free wine 😱

The 0% Leffe is really nice. Also, I wholeheartedly recommend the non-alcoholic Kopparberg (particularly the strawberry and lime one).

I've been mixing a Sainsbury's alcohol free rose with soda for a nice spritzer.

Fentimans Rose Lemonade is lovely! DS was pretty much grown in the stuff. I also like their other drinks too, pink ginger is a lovely level of heat and the Victorian lemonade is really tart (in a good way).

I've tried a lot of non-alcoholic beers, my preference weirdly is Budweiser Zero.

Don't bother with non-alcoholic wines, there are a few half decent fizzes though. I buy Sainsbury's own x

I never found a decent non alcoholic wine when pregnant. Non alcoholic koppaberg ciders & tescos no alcohol g&t's are your next 9 months!

Big Drop and Mikeller beers are lovely, and I highly recommend a copy of Alcohol Not Included by Jassy Davies for mocktail inspiration. My current treat is buying flavoured seltzer by the case off Amazon; Dash Water, Aqua Libra and Loveau are all really nice.

Ooh where do you get that from please? I love cider but the fruit ones are way too sweet and I’ve been craving a proper cider.

Non alcoholic 0% beers always have a horrible metallic aftertaste to me. I stick with 0.5% as I think it's brewed more normally and it tastes so much better. My favourite is the big drop range. Otherwise bitters and tonic is great.

Sorry MikeWozniak just saw your message co op sells them must confess haven't seen them elsewhere x

Aldi do their own version of alcohol free Kopperbergs that are quite nice!
