Everleaf is one of the best brands to make no-alcohol cocktails. These award-winning aperitifs are made by a skilled artisan, and ideal to blend for your favourite non-boozy treats for special days. No drink can call itself 0% alcohol (as even fruit has a little booze). But these are as low alcohol as you can go. Just mix one part Everleaf with 3 parts mixer over ice, then add a garnish for summer in a glass.
If taking medication, check paper inserts before consuming grapefruit (tonic waters are also best avoided during pregnancy, due to quinine – just top with soda water instead).
This brand was founded by a conservation biologist, who spent years learning how to observe and learn from the natural world. Also selling wholesale, all ingredients are sustainably sourced (like hand-harvested Irish dulse and organic olive leaf) and the company gives back to many conservation causes worldwide.
There are three drinks in this range, which you can also buy as gift packs:
- Forest blends sustainable botanicals from exotic saffron and vanilla, with orange blossom
- Mountain includes cherry blossom, strawberry and bittersweet rosehip
- Marine has flavours of sea buckthorn, bergamot for zest and kelp seaweed
