Send me a message 🤗It’s time for some uncomfortable truths about alcohol-free drinks. This episode might make me a little unpopular in the industry, but that’s ok because it needs to be said: Not all alcohol-free drinks are good!After being asked this very question during my BBC Radio Xtra debut (yay!), I was inspired to share this episode and explore with you why some low/no options fall short. But to keep the balance, it’s not all bad, I’m still sharing the love, but only after some real honesty.0:00 Are all alcohol-free drinks good?2:07 Jumping on the bandwagon3:55 Why some drinks aren't great: sugar5:36 Unbalanced6:46 Artificial flavourings7:19 Confusion8:51 Trial & error10:51 Brands will come and go12:50 Personal taste15:10 Try & try againBest episode to listen to next: #21 Decem: From MasterChef finalist to 10% Spirit Distiller#59 Plant-powered AF Brewing: On Beer ===✏️ Come hang out with me on Substack - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/===Take the Midlife Drinking Triggers Quiz - https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/68dd33385bb4a20015996a13===*Some links are affiliate links.
