Is this the golden age of non-alcoholic drinks? | About That

More Canadians will be reaching for non-alcoholic cocktails this holiday season than ever before. We asked a bar owner, a non-alcoholic gin distiller, and a former bartender about the rise in non-alcoholic cocktails and the growing options that feel fancy without the booze. They talk about who's choosing these drinks, how the market has grown and why it's so hard to say, "No thanks, I'm not drinking." Plus, Andrew Chang and producer Lauren Bird conduct a taste test.

    As someone who chooses not to drink alcohol, i would definitely pay for this over regular juice or pop. Love her passion and will go there.

    @@thewewguy8t88 Some people may choose not to drink due to health or diet issues. My friend choose to live a healthy lifestyle and hadn't touch a drop for the last 10 years. Some medication does not mix well with alcohol. Some people don't like the taste. I have a friend who is allergic to alcohol. She took a sip of champagne during a pre-grad celebration and spent the rest of the day in a hospital. Everyone has different reasons.

    Are cannabis drinks considered "mocktails" because they don't have alcohol or are they in a separate category on their own?

    because variety is nice to have once in a while. its like having options of a latte instead of a regular coffee or tea. the extra choices are a nice change. I always get mock tails at the bar for something different.

    There is no such thing as a non-alcoholic cocktail. This is just a fancy juice at a higher price because it’s in a fancy glass. 😂😂
