Will you try the first-ever non-alcoholic gin?

Drinking gin is, without a doubt, packed full of fantastic health benefits (more on that later) and indicative of a strong personality.


One of its problems is that gin headache the morning after that's one of the reasons it’s called Mother’s Ruin.

As such, it means  it's better to limit drinking your gin to a few shots. Nobody wants a gin headache when they wake up in the morning for work, after being drowsy all night.

Change is here, you can finally have Gin & Tonic  for breakfast without a side-dish of alcoholic side-effects.

 Seedlip, the world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit, is on a mission to solve the 'what-to-drink-when-you’re-not-drinking-alcohol’ dilemma.

It's London-based creator, Ben Branson, says isn’t just non-alcoholic – it’s completely free of sugar, sweeteners, and artificial flavourings too.

After finding a copy of The Art of Distillation a few years back, he headed out into the world to harvest ingredients from Mother Nature himself.

Once done, he took them to his special kitchen in the woods, where he began experimenting in earnest. After trying out a lot of different combinations, Branson’s finally perfected his recipe.

It steers clear of all things fruity and sweet, favouring instead the complex and adult flavours of natural barks, citrus peels, and spices.

The result is a “sophisticated profile with strong clove and citrus top notes.

Speaking about his invention, he described it as “a really grown-up non-alcoholic option for all the times when you are not drinking, whether it’s because you aren’t driving, are pregnant or on medication or because it’s a Monday evening”.

He told Drink Up: “For me it’s about trying to solve the problem of what you drink when you’re not drinking – especially as the industry moves towards spending more but drinking less.

“It shouldn’t be a flavour compromise. How can bartenders produce something decent when all they have to play around with are fruit juices and syrups?”
