Classic Cocktails: Alcohol-Free, Familiar Flavours

When we assess a ‘good’ cocktail, we look for complexity, depth and a bit of familiarity too.

Complexity and depth gives you the bite, layers and excitement. It turns an alcohol-free drink from a juice to something far greater. 

Familiarity brings some of our favourite cocktails. We can experiment in creating the very best alcohol-free versions of a Mojito, a Margarita, an Espresso Martini, or hey, we’re pretty lucky as we have people doing that for us now!

The Savyll Beverage Company are doing just that. Designing elegantly ready-to-serve alcohol-free cocktails that recreate the familiarity, complexity and sense of occasion of the world’s most popular cocktails. Taking the Bellini which is an effervescent fusion of rich white peach aromas, dry Prosecco notes and aromatic bitters. Perfect for dinner parties, Sunday brunches and weddings. The Paloma, which is an explosion of bittersweet, sparkling grapefruit juice, a hint of lime and herbal tequila essence. It’s a refreshing change of pace from the usual G&T alternatives. 

When Founder Avnish and his wife were trying for a baby several years ago, they vowed to live healthier lifestyles for the good of their future family. “My wife had an easy time cutting out alcohol, but I found it very difficult to stay away from the lifestyle we had become accustomed to. I still enjoyed a cocktail from time to time, but it was a challenge for me to find the right balance for myself since the alternatives to cocktails at the time were either bright, bold and excessively sweetened mocktails, or they were unique alcohol-free drinks that didn’t resemble the flavours that I loved. Neither appealed to me, so I decided to create my own alternatives. After a year of meticulous, yet curiously-led product development, the Savyll Beverage Company was founded. I finally managed to find the balance I was looking for. Four months later, my daughter was born.”

With a belief that cocktails can be packed full of sugar and nasties, Savyll cocktails are made from all natural flavours and extracts, with less than 5g per 100ml of natural cane sugar. No artificial sweeteners or flavourings are used. 

Plus, all cocktails are vegan-friendly, gluten free and of course, alcohol-free!

Perfect to gently shake and pour over ice at home, bring in a picnic basket in the Summer, take to dinner parties or serve at a wedding - a cocktail for all occasions and all palettes.
