Product Information

This is one of the easiest mixed drinks to make but is still delicious. Perfect for hosting a Eurovision watch party! Ingredients The challenge with non-alcoholic wines is that they are made from grapes which are naturally sweet,’ she said. ‘For these products, we’ve not added or taken away anything from the grapes.

Add the alcohol-free gin and chamomile flowers (you can use tea bags if needed) into a container. Gently stir this and then let it sit for at least five days to get the flavour you would like. In this case the selected grape varieties are Chenin Blanc and Pinotage Blush, grapes which are commonly used in good quality wines and feature in Tesco’s wine range.’

For a less sweet version, you could also try diluting with a little sparkling water – like a non-alcoholic wine spritzer. Freshly-squeezed orange juice is always a good idea, but you’ll want to strain your juice in that case. You want to sip, not chew, this one. In a glass stir the alcohol-free gin and elderflower syrup with ice until cool and then strain into a champagne glass. We hope these products appeal to adults who do not drink alcohol – due to religious reasons, are pregnant, designated driver or those who are limiting their alcohol intake due to a lifestyle choice.’

As product developer Emma says, it is sweet – far too sweet for my palate (I thought it was sweeter than most proseccos I have tried) – but fans of a sweeter wine or sweeter drinks in general (Appletiser, Schloer are both equally as sweet) will like its fruitiness and body. Pour your choice of soda water or lemonade over your combinations of syrups in a flute or short glass for a speedy glass of faux fizz, serve cold and enjoy! When I’m not drinking alcohol I’d rather have a low or no sugar tonic with ice and lime, which is just reminiscent enough of G&T to keep me going at an event where I can’t drink, or a sparkling water (I know, wild right?). The hardest part is getting the twist right with your orange peel. Limiting the juice to a splash limits your sugar intake while boosting your vitamin C.

Served ice cold, it is refreshing, and looks just as good in a champagne flute as its alcoholic cousin. Putting my prejudice for anything sweet aside for a moment though, I could appreciate that the wine has a rich, fruity aroma – you certainly get a whiff of real grape – and a good level of fizz.
