Which Mixers Pair Best With Which Gins?

Gin lovers are often cited as the curious, adult Alice in Wonderland sub-section of distilled spirits drinkers. As one myself, I am fluid in my drink choices, always up for new adventures in gin and mixers. People like me really enjoy trying new flavours, concepts, and combinations. It’s important for our five senses to get involved in any drinking experience. Constantly on a quest to seek a new favourite to make us grin like a Cheshire cat, we rarely stick with one preferred brand, building up home collections of gin bottles we fell in love with along the way as they beckoned ‘Drink Me’. Adult Alices treasure our gin cabinets with pride. It’s something non-gin peeps in the ordinary world struggle to understand.

As consumers, our buying decisions are multi-faceted, not based solely on the spirit inside the bottle, we’re also drawn to brand story, ethos and of course eye-catching bottle design and colours. We love attractive gin bottles very much and struggle to part with our ‘babies’ even when they’re empty! One of the most significant lessons we can learn from Alice in Wonderland is the importance of imagination. This must be the reason many empty gin bottles end up repurposed into table lamps and other home decor. As owners we can keep the relationship, pay homage to the memorable moments, flavours, whimsy, and magical quality of our experiences. By opening up our insatiably curious nature and thinking outside the bottle, gin helps us live a life that is anything but ordinary.

Has the gin bubble burst?

Some folks are saying the UK gin bubble has burst. Can this possibly be true? It does seem to be the case that demand for the classic Gin and Tonic has shown some decline lately. But why? 

If we peep through the lens of a typical Adult Alice’s looking glass, you realise her perception of the world around her constantly shifts and changes so she will always seek variety in her sips. To cater to this profile, retailers and bars must keep adapting their range of gin offerings and mixer selections to meet consumer demand and provide new adventures in flavour. Alongside core popular gins and tonics, a kaleidoscope of new choices emerge.

With more options available than there have ever been, experimenting with flavours, styles and other spirits is an unsurprising next step for any gin lover, however they are unlikely to permanently replace gin for something different as a favourite spirit. Light and Dark Rums, Vodka, Tequila, Scotch Whisky, Cognac and Armagnac etc may pique their curiosity for a while but there’ll always be a homecoming to Gin. That’s because no other distilled spirit category offers so many botanically diverse variations and Gin is too deep-rooted in UK culture to lose its appeal. Added to that, we demand variety in the T part of our beloved G&T as tastes evolve.

Exciting developments in tonics and mixers is where we head next in this article. Follow me down the rabbit hole into a wonderland of tonic waters, lemonades, cola and sodas.

LONDON, 1886

In Victorian London, 1886, Lewis Carroll’s popular Alice in Wonderland books had been adapted into a musical and rehearsals were underway for its premiere at The Prince of Wales Theatre. At the same time, in Rickmansworth London, three brothers George, Albert and Frederick Franklin began creating extraordinary drinks by combining the finest naturally sourced ingredients. They grew a reputation for their mineral water, brewed ginger beer and lemonade which they sold from their small family confectioners in returnable torpedo-shaped glass bottles. In 1898 (the year Lewis Carroll died) Franklin & Sons Mineral Waters was born when Frederick’s son (also Frederick) took over the business and renamed it. In 1900 the business expanded into the old silk mill at the west end of Rickmansworth High Street and went from strength to strength.

True pioneers in the soft drinks space, the company led the way with natural ingredients and flavourings, innovating further in the 1930s when they became inspired by demand from Americans travelling to London.

FRANKLIN & SONS LTD

Relaunched in 2016 to meet market demand in the same way it responded in the past, today Franklin & Sons follows those same principles using their experience and expertise to craft a wider range of exceptional, award-winning drinks without compromise, ie minus artificial colours, flavours, sweeteners or preservatives. The bottle aesthetic remains traditional and nostalgic and reflects the pioneering values of yesteryear.

But don’t make assumptions that their ideas are trapped in the past. There is nothing bland about these drinks. They ooze the most wonderful flavours and natural vibrancy that every botanical fanatic looks for.

Read on for how they stretch the nature of mixers into innovative new realms. But first, let’s cover their award-winning tonics. If you enjoy a classic G&T give these a try because they may just become your favourite new go-to tonic. Especially if you are concerned about sugars, artificial sweeteners, or like to count the calories.

8 Alcohol Free Drinks You Need On Your Radar

Sober October is here, and Dry January is on the horizon. These movements are becoming more and more popular, as drinkers seek to focus on their health and avoid deadly hangovers. But, it’s not just a change in attitudes that has led to more and more people trying alcohol-free alternatives.

The drinks have improved massively. Let’s be honest, many alcohol-free alternatives in the past have left us feeling a bit underwhelmed. But fear not – times are changing. The NoLo industry has grown massively over the past decade, with brewers and scientists putting serious effort into creating authentic, flavour-packed options. So, if you’ve been disappointed when trying one years ago, now’s the time to give No-Lo a second chance.

We’ve sampled a wide range of offerings, and below are alcohol-free (or under 0.5%) alternatives to your favourite drinks that are guaranteed to impress. Cheers to mindful drinking!

The Best Gin Alternatives Non-Alcoholic Drinks

CleanCo Clean G Non-Alcoholic

Many drinks brands get a celebrity boost at the start, but if the quality’s not there they soon fall away. Spencer Matthews helped create CleanCo but it’s their commitment to innovative, well-made No-Lo spirits that has resulted in the awards. Clean G is a spot-on alternative to classic gin. Inspired by the essence of London Dry Gin, it captures the crispness of juniper with zesty citrus and a delicate floral note. Its cloudy appearance and smooth finish reflect the care put into its creation. There’s a mellow lemonade character to it with that bright citrus, so it would pair with tonic really nicely.

Size: 700ml

Herbarium Distillation 8 - Floral Herbs

Herbarium Drinks, known for their innovative alcohol-free spirits, introduce Herbarium Distillation 8 – Floral Herbs, a botanical masterpiece designed to bring nature's best to your glass. Crafted by founders Steve and Andrew themselves, this spirit is hand-distilled in small batches using copper pot stills, ensuring an authentic and pure experience with no added sugars, sweeteners, or flavourings. Floral herbs like rosemary, lemongrass, and lavender shine through, balanced by a subtle pink peppery spice and warming citrus notes. Perfect as a gin alternative, simply serve with tonic, ice, and a slice of citrus for a refreshing and sophisticated drink.

The Tequila Alternative Non-Alcoholic Drink

Almave Ambar Distilled Non-Alcoholic Blue Weber Spirit

This is another celebrity-fronted creation that got a bit of a head start via F1 star Lewis Hamilton, but that’s not why we’re including it. Tequila expert Iván Saldaña led the project, distilling from Blue Weber agave in Jalisco, Mexico, using traditional techniques – except it skips the fermentation, keeping it alcohol-free (or under 0.5%). With a deep amber hue, it delivers notes of caramel, roasted agave, and toasted wood, balanced by allspice and cacao. It’s got the agave heritage as well as modern innovation.

Size: 700ml
ABV: 0.5%
Find here: £24.95

The Best Rum Alternative Non-Alcoholic Drink

Caleño Dark & Spicy

Inspired by the vibrant flavours of Colombia, Caleño Dark & Spicy offers an exotic, tropical twist on traditional rum alternatives. This alcohol-free spirit bursts with juicy pineapple, coconut, ginger, vanilla, and earthy black cardamom. With no added sugar, its natural sweetness shines, making it a versatile option for cocktails or mixing with soda or ginger beer. It’s not a direct swap for dark rum and perhaps resembles spiced rum more accurately but could definitely step in as an alternative in many a rum cocktail.

The Best Wine Alternative Non-Alcoholic Drink

Wednesday’s Domaine – Sanguine & Vignette

Wednesday’s Domaine aim to adhere to a ‘real’ wine experience. Their two distinct alcohol-free reds really capture that essence, beginning with Spanish Tempranillo grapes. First, Sanguine. A light, easy-drinking red, bursting with vibrant raspberry, damson, and blueberry notes, complemented by a subtle hint of spice. Its bright acidity and delicate structure make it perfect for casual sipping. Next up, Vignette, a more complex, full-bodied red, ideal for pairing with meals. Rich with flavours of dark plums, damson, and a touch of forest floor, it has a long, dry finish that adds sophistication.

The Best Sparkling Wine Alternative Non-Alcoholic Drink

La Gioiosa Italian Alcohol Free Sparkling Wine

A lot of non-alcoholic sparkling wine can suffer from being overly sweet or offering nothing at all; La Gioiosa avoids those pitfalls brilliantly, bringing a taste of Italy's finest bubbles. Made in the heart of Prosecco country, it resembles that style impressively with elegance, effervescence and a pale straw hue. Think crisp apple, fruit salad, zesty citrus and mellow florality with acacia and wisteria. It’s lovely, light and refreshing – and good value too.

The Best Beer Alternative Non-Alcoholic Drink

Lucky Saint Hazy IPA

Lucky Saint delivers a bold, juicy Hazy IPA with tropical and stone fruit notes that pack a punch. Brewed with a blend of pale malts and New World hops, this unfiltered IPA offers maximum flavour without the alcohol.

7 Cocktails Perfect for Autumnal Days

As cruel as it might be after some pretty underwhelming sunshine, summer is leaving us, but replacing it is many people’s favourite season – autumn. As the leaves turn golden and the nights grow longer, it’s time to cosy up with some autumnal cocktails.

Here, we’re looking for rich flavours, brooding darker spirits, warming spice and comforting fruits.

Apple Cider Old Fashioned

This is your classic Old Fashioned, but with an autumnal twist that’ll have you feeling all cosy inside. The bourbon brings its usual warmth, but it’s the crisp apple cider and hint of maple syrup that elevate this cocktail into seasonal perfection.

The warm, spiced flavours of chai tea mix beautifully with the sharpness of the lemon and the depth of whisky. It’s fragrant, comforting, and a little bit exotic – the perfect cocktail for sipping on a chilly evening.

Autumn doesn’t just have to be about rich and warming flavours!

50ml gin
25ml cranberry juice
15ml lemon juice

Hot Buttered Rum

The pinnacle of autumnal indulgence – we don’t know why this isn’t more popular. Few things scream ‘autumn’ like this traditional hot cocktail.

Pumpkin Spice Hot Toddy

Let’s stick with those warm serves for now. You can take a look at Hot Toddy variations here, but how about this Pumpkin Spice riff? It’s warm, comforting, and everything you love about autumn in a mug. The whisky brings its usual rich intensity, but the pumpkin spice syrup adds a seasonal sweetness that’s impossible to resist.

What's the Difference Between Organic and Biodynamic Wines?

Image credit: Fattoria La Vialla

The impacts of climate change now shape the long-term future of every vineyard and winemaker around the world. Savvy customers increasingly expect greater transparency on where and how the grapes are grown, and what goes into their favourite bottle of wine.

Modern commercial winemaking often depends on monoculture, rows and rows of vines lacking the biodiversity to cope with pests and disease outbreaks. To maximise crop yield, chemical fertilisers and synthetic pesticides are sprayed to protect the vines from pests, with industrial herbicides to maintain the land. The grapes are then harvested by hand or with mechanical equipment and processed using sulphites, enzymatic stabilisers, added sugars; the list goes on….

The industry standards and regulations around conventional wine making and labelling vary from country to country. We see ‘contains sulphites’ on the bottle but beyond that it’s often not possible to determine what farming practices have been used, or what and just how much of it has been added within the winemaking process. Above all, you are not able to tell what pesticides have been used on the vines/grapes and soil.

Fundamentally, soil health and biodiversity are everything - the quality and essence of the wine that takes you back to where the vines are tendered. You cannot make outstanding wines from mediocre grapes grown on over-farmed and depleted sites.

Next, we travel to Tuscany in Italy to find out more about how things can be done differently.

Fattoria La Vialla, Toscana 

Image credit: Fattoria La Vialla

Outside Florence and Siena lie the rolling hills of Tuscany. For those in the know, venture further south towards Arezzo (the stunning location of Roberto Benigni’s Life is Beautiful). En route lies over 1,600 hectares of fields and forest owned and managed by Fattoria La Vialla, a family-run farm and wine estate.

This Fattoria (farm and wine estate in Italian) has been practising organic and biodynamic farming and winemaking since 1978. The estate produces its own wine, extra virgin olive oil, pecorino cheese, appetisers, sauces, pasta, vinegar, honey, biscuits and more - directly from vineyard to bottle, from vegetable patch to jar.

Their wines have received multiple awards in the past decade, including 159 alone in the first half of 2024! They have a multitude of mouthwatering farm produce and their farm diaries @fattorialavialla are well worth following. Their holistic and regenerative approach to agriculture and farming even extends to a growing range of biodynamic, Demeter-certified face and body care products made from upcycled olive water from their olive oil production, as well as dietary supplements. But this begs the question, what are biodynamic and organic products? Let’s find out more…

What are Organic Wines? 

Image credit: Fattoria La Vialla

For over 45 years Fattoria La Vialla has cultivated its land using organic methods, but what do ‘organic viticulture’ and ‘organic wine’ mean?

Organic wine is wine produced with grapes from certified organic agriculture and only small amounts of a few additives and adjuvants are allowed, all of which must be of certified organic origin. A key point of organic production is the much lower quantity of sulphites used, compared to wines produced with conventional methods. The accepted limit of sulphur dioxide is 100 mg/l for dry red wines (versus 150 mg/l of conventional) and 150 mg/l for white and dry rosé (versus 200 mg/l of conventional).

The Italian word “biologico” for organic comes from the Greek “bios”, meaning life. Based on national and EU regulatory frameworks; to be awarded the logo “BIO”, a farm must undergo a three-year transition from conventional agriculture to a system that requires no chemicals used for pests, weeds and pathogenic organisms’ control. The use of GMO products is also prohibited.

To be labelled ‘organic wine’ with the Euro-leaf symbol, both the viticulture and winemaking processes must comply with very specific legal requirements, besides the general regulations for all wines. The label must also include the identification code of the certification agency. To maintain this status, farms are subject to annual inspections on traceability from vineyard to bottle.

Organic viticulture is not simply a business or ecological choice. Vines are self-pollinators that depend on wind. So, if your neighbouring farms or vineyards do not operate by organic standards, it would be a practical challenge to gain certification.

What are Biodynamic Wines?

Image credit: Fattoria La Vialla

Biodynamics is derived from the writings of the spiritual philosopher Rudolf Steiner in the 1920s, who saw the farm as an ecological whole: not just rows of grapevines but the soil beneath them—a living ecosystem—and the other surrounding flora and fauna, growing together to the rhythms of nature and the cosmos.

As suggested by the name, biodynamic wine is closely related to biodynamic agricultural practices, a discipline much closer to philosophy than science. The key differences between organic and biodynamic wine are based on a holistic view of cultivation.  Biodynamics takes the concept of organic agriculture further, striving for synergy with nature and its cycles. Therefore, any wine produced with the biodynamic discipline comes from grapes cultivated following the lunar calendar, with pruning, irrigation and harvesting practices taking place on specific days. Harvest by hand is also a prerequisite.

Biodynamic wine is very similar to organic wine, but not subject to EU regulations. Its labelling also requires certification, the most common by Demeter. Besides prohibiting the use of all pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilisers, certain biodynamic ingredients such as cow horn manure and cornosilica made according to specific prescriptions have to be applied by the lunar calendar. These requirements are more stringent than those for organic certification.

In addition, only glass bottles with non-plastic closures can be used and the level of permitted sulphites as compared with organic wines are reduced further to 90mg/l for whites, 70mg/l for reds, and only 60mg/l for sparkling wines.

At Fattoria La Vialla, all farming practices are biodynamic with over 832.66 hectares of land having obtained Demeter certification and the remainder of the land undergoing conversion. Besides their organic and biodynamic certification, all La Vialla wines are vegan and La Vialla has also adopted the “La Vialla’s Method”: a way of being and of doing things, which pervades the hearts of all the “Viallini”, both staff and family, with the shared mission of respecting people, animals and the Earth.

Now, let’s taste our way through some great organic and biodynamic wines from Fattoria La Vialla:

Sparkling Wine

"Mussantino Selvatico Rosé" 2023

Image credit: Will Wong

Made with 100% Pinot Nero, its deep fuchsia pink is bound to raise eyebrows in the bottle or glass. Despite it being a sparkling wine, you’d need a corkscrew! The gentle fizz comes with a bouquet of ripe strawberries. It’s a bone-dry easy drinking aperitif that is versatile with summer salads, smoked salmon and bresaola. Summer party crowd pleaser.

Size: 750ml
ABV: 12.5%

Cuvée N2 Metodo Classico Millesimato 2016

Image credit: Will Wong

It’s pale appearance almost disguises the fact that this Traditional Method extra-Brut sparkling wine is a Blanc de Noirs made with 100% Pinot Nero. Multi award winning and best of show at Vinitaly, this Blanc de Noirs is aged for 64 months on its lees (secondary fermentation in the bottle like champagne). It has notes of elderflower on the nose and is crisp but soft on the palate. Allow a little time for it to open up and serve between 6-8°C. Pairs well with baked sea bass, steamed broccoli and Jersey Royal potatoes.

Still White Wine

Vermentino di Maremma Toscana D.O.C. 2023

Image credit: Will Wong

Lesser known and often forgotten, Vermentino is more often associated with Sardinia or Corsica. A light-bodied wine that can be as deliciously complex as some Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes were harvested from Viallino vineyards in the Tuscan Maremma close to the sea, giving the wine crisp citrus acidity with a flinty and saline character. Perfect companion with pesto, white fish and seafood dishes. It works wonders with dim sum such as prawn dumplings, ‘shumai’ and spring rolls.

Size: 750ml
ABV: 12.5%

Pinot Grigio I.G.T. 2022

Image credit: Will Wong

Blended with super ripe grapes from two sites, this unfiltered Pinot Grigio is bottled with the lees which you might find at the bottom of the bottle. This extends its bottle life if stored in darkness away from heat; and gives the wine extra texture over time. Chill the bottle upright in the fridge if possible.

Once the cork is drawn, you will be seduced by its lush tropical nose packed with peaches and nectarines ripened in the Tuscan sun. On the first sip, the wine is bone-dry with a slight tangy long finish, much like some funky ‘natural’ wines. Great companion with Caesar chicken kebab and aubergine. Best enjoyed with shellfish and crustaceans, either raw, steamed or grilled.

Size: 750ml
ABV: 14%
Find here: £9.60 each in a case of 6

Still Red Wines

Casal Duro I.G.T. 2020

Image credit: Will Wong

Aged for 24 months in barriques, the deep ink in your glass looks serious. Yet, its vibrant cherry nose and youthful soft tannins make this unfiltered Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot blend very accessible now, with further cellaring potential of at least five years. Medium-bodied and robust, this multi-gold-award winning wine stands up to grilled red meat or roast beef with ease. Italian fares such as lasagne or tomato-based pasta and pizza are waiting.

Size: 750ml
ABV: 15%

Cortona Syrah D.O.C. Riserva 2019

Image credit: Will Wong

As seen on the Impressionist painting on the label, the historic and scenic town of Cortona is perched on a hilltop where some of the best Syrah grapes are grown nearby. 2019 proved to be an exceptional vintage. Some of the harvest were aged in Slavonian oak with the rest in used 500-litre tonneaux barrels for 24 months. Once blended, the cuvée remains in the bottle for another year to soften the tannins.

In high summer with temperatures over 25ºC, it’s worth chilling the bottle before decanting at least an hour ahead of serving to let the wine breathe and open up. The result is an inviting cherry perfume nose followed by a dry black peppery long finish. Pair with any hearty red meat or winter stews. It even works with bitter dark chocolate!

Podere La Casotta I.G.T. 2018

Image credit: Will Wong

The beautifully illustrated front label gives us a glimpse of the picturesque landscape; with the once abandoned and derelict 18th century ‘podere’ (farmstead) facing a semi-circle of majestic cypress trees. Restoration began in 2002; together with planting varietals that are blended in this flagship red.

Three of the five grapes in the blend, including Sangiovese that makes Chianti famous worldwide, are left to dry out lying on racks in well-ventilated dry rooms until December. They are then combined with the other two already in fermentation. This process is called ‘appassimento’ and it creates a greater concentration of colours, aromas and flavours in the wine. The final blend is aged in barriques for 24 months, followed by 6 months in casks and a further 12 months in the bottle.

Decanted an hour ahead, the lovely herbal nose will take you up the hillside forest. It’s delicately smooth and balanced with soft tannins and dark fruits. Any underlying sweetness is restrained leading to a moreish fine red perfect to drink now and will age gracefully over 20 years if cellared with care.

Size: 750ml
ABV: 15%
Find here: £25.25 each in a box of two

Sweet Wines

Vin Santo 'Occhio di Pernice' Riserva D.O.C. 2015

Image credit: Will Wong

The ‘Liquid of Saints’ is hailed as the Prince of Tuscan dessert wines and won best of show at VinItaly with 96 points! Being a Riserva, the Sangiovese and Malvasia Toscano blend must be aged in small Caratelli (oak or cherry) barrels for at least 7 years. The concentrated sugar gives this honey nectar an ageing potential of 20 years. Enjoy at 15ºC on its own, with crème brûlée or strong cheeses.

Size: 500ml
ABV: 15%
Find here: £19.40

Respect for the Earth does not have to break the bank for us consumers. Fattoria La Vialla delivers your order without middlemen at very competitive prices. Giuliana and Piero Lo Franco began pursuing their dream of restoring the abandoned farm over 46 years ago and now their sons - Gianni, Antonio and Bandino – continue to run Fattoria La Vialla whilst being inspired by the idea of good, healthy food, and the protection of nature and its fruits.

Promoted from ‘carbon neutral’ to ‘climate positive; by the Nature Office of Italy in 2020, Fattoria La Vialla is a totally eco-sustainable, “climate positive” farm and wine estate. La Vialla hasn’t stopped here though, as in 2022 the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), together with the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) chose Fattoria La Vialla as one of the #GenerationRestoration actors for the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. The aim of the programme is to create a global movement to prevent, halt, and reverse the degradation of ecosystems, in which sustainable and regenerative agriculture plays a key role. We don’t know about you, but we can’t wait to see what Fattoria La Vialla does next!
