Nozeco - Buck's Fizz Alcohol Free Sparkling Drink made from alcohol-removed Wine - Natural Orange Flavour - Vegan - Case of 6 (6 x 0.75 L)

Product Information

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. 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. 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.

For a less sweet version, you could also try diluting with a little sparkling water – like a non-alcoholic wine spritzer. This is one of the easiest mixed drinks to make but is still delicious. Perfect for hosting a Eurovision watch party! IngredientsWhen 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?).

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.

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! Pour apple juice along with the whole spices, ginger, clementine zest and sugar into a sauce pan, and slowly bring to a boil. Leave this to simmer for around 10 minutes before removing from the heat and allow to cool. Strain off the syrup into a jug or bottle. This syrup can now be mixed into soda water, lemonade or whatever else you may you prefer! Pear and rose punch

They are fermented following the wine making process, but the process is stopped prior to the point of the wine becoming alcoholic. They are then carbonated. Therefore, the product has a sweet profile which would be more like a prosecco-style sparkling wine.’ Full disclosure: I have never been able to get behind non-alcoholic wine. It’s always far too sweet for me, as are pretty much all fizzy soft drinks. The grapes used to make non-alcoholic wine are just as important to the end result as for alcoholic wine, says Emma. ‘As with wine, the grape is fundamental to the taste of the products – after all, they are made from 100% grapes,’ she says. 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.

Måneskin were the iconic winner of Eurovision 2021 with the song Zitti e buoni. After shooting to fame there were false allegations that they had been taking cocaine. The band responded by laughingly saying that frontman Damiano David didn’t even touch alcohol and would be in bed at 10 pm with a cup of chamomile whenever possible! Served ice cold, it is refreshing, and looks just as good in a champagne flute as its alcoholic cousin. Feel free to get creative with other fruit juices, too. Blood orange, pineapple, and mango juices go well at brunch or baby showers. Cranberry juice may feel festive if you’re celebrating the winter holidays or new year’s. Instructions

As a champagne lover, opening the bottle was the most exciting part for me – it had one of the new zip corks – a Zork – that you peel open like a little corkscrew zipper before popping off the cork (which came off with a very loud and festive pop), which can then be used to reseal the bottle.

A common complaint about alcohol-free wines is that they are often over-sweet – but Emma says this wasn’t something they tried to combat. Rather, they wanted to work with the natural sweetness of the fruits to create a sweet, ‘prosecco-style’ wine. 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.’ 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. In a glass stir the alcohol-free gin and elderflower syrup with ice until cool and then strain into a champagne glass.
