From under $13 to exclusive bottles, Perth’s Liberty Liquors Claremont, has the best range of non-alcoholic drinks in Western Australia. The Latest & Greatest in Non-Alcoholic Options While some of choose to decline alcohol all year round, others for medical reasons, the notion of giving up the sauce for a stint is ever popular, and Dry January has truly attached itself to our national psyche. It seems the lure of a health kick, trimming the waist and skipping hangovers is a potent one. It can be a challenge to inject soft drinks with the same amount of sparkle as their alcoholic equivalents, but at Liberty Liquors we have some excellent and ever-expanding ranges of non-alcoholic options for ensuring teetotallers don’t miss out. These days, the options for alcohol-free drinks are many. Crafted with care, they can be a helpful tool for people starting their alcohol-free journey. Non-alcoholic premixed drinks, beer and cider, alcohol-free wine and mixers are all available on the growing market. At bars and restaurants too, options for low or zero alcohol beverages are becoming more commonly available. But like with any growing market there are good and bad options available, and we have done the hard work for you to bring you only the best of the best. Non-Alcoholic Labelling Laws While Australian Laws vary from state and international laws are all over the place, generally speaking 0.5% or less is considered to be non-alcoholic. Labelling laws across the globe use a wide variety of confusing terms, so it is best to use the ABV or alcohol percentage when making your selections rather than the terms on the bottle. All of this variation can be a bit confusing at first but when you consider the edible component of a ripe banana contains about 0.4% alcohol and some baked goods 1.2% it puts things into perspective and 0.5% or less is a great rule of thumb. Non-alcoholic spirits allow you to feel a part of the party without the negative effects of alcohol. Stock up your own home bar for premixed mocktails and a selection of non-alcoholic gin, wine, mixers and a cocktail shaker set to get creative. At Liberty Liquors Claremont we stock some of the absolute best non-alcoholic options tried and approved by our staff, because let’s face it there’s nothing worse than a subpar replica.
