Sipping Through Summer: Alcohol-Free Picks for Holidays, BBQs and Beach Days
Summer’s here, and so are the good drinks.
Whether you’re jetting off, firing up the barbecue or chasing the sun in your local park, there’s never been a better time to go alcohol-free. From crisp lagers to bright spritzers, we’ve picked out some seasonal favourites to help you sip your way through summer, without the downsides.
For the Barbecue Boss
Nothing pairs better with smoky grilled food than a cold lager or a bold dark beer. Reach for a clean, malt-forward Helles or a rich alcohol-free porter to balance charred flavours and big marinades. These styles hold their own next to burgers, sausages and flame-licked veggies, and you can go back for seconds.
Beach Bag Essentials
Keep it light, keep it cold, keep it in a can. Fruity radlers, citrus wheat beers and low-ABV IPAs are made for sunshine. Chuck them in your cool bag with a few ice packs and you’re sorted. Look for drinks under 0.5% so you can sip all day and still drive home.
Sundowners and Spritz Hour
Cocktail hour still exists, even without the booze. Stock up on alcohol-free G&Ts, bitter aperitifs and ready-to-drink spritzers to pour over ice as the sun dips. Add a wedge of orange or a splash of tonic for a longer serve and make it your evening ritual.
Travel-Friendly Favourites
Not all drinks need chilling or glassware. Cans of alcohol-free beer or RTD cocktails are ideal for road trips, self-catering holidays or weekends away: no ID checks, no corkscrews, no problem.
