Non-alcoholic cocktails aren’t a new phenomenon behind bars. But they’ve been extra welcome after the Christmases of the past decade, as Dry January continues to gather momentum year on year.

Now, January 2023 marks its 10^th anniversary, with thousands of people foregoing alcohol for 31 days, raising massive sums on behalf of Alcohol Change UK.  

The charity proudly spells out many and varied benefits of taking part in their annual challenge, such as “…more energy, a chance to save some money, improved concentration, boosted mood… lower blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes risk, as well as lower cancer-related proteins in the blood”.

It’s compelling. But what if you’re having a January Christmas party or your birthday falls in the new year?

Your celebrations needn’t fall as flat as pancake if you and / or your guests are participating in Dry January. You see, non-alcoholic cocktails have really uplevelled recently. They used to be fancy soft drinks in effect, for example, a Banana Colada without the rum.

But the evolution of non-alcoholic spirits has changed the game for non-alcoholic cocktails, making these unboozy beverages a lot more interesting!

Here are a few of the most popular non-alcoholic cocktails to try.
