Alcohol-free aperitif: light drinks
As consumer behaviors shift, alcohol-free aperitifs are becoming a sustainable, healthy, and convivial trend. Jardins is reinventing these warm, convivial moments with gourmet, organic, and French-made non-alcoholic beverages. Opting for a refined alcohol-free aperitif also means choosing to live differently and without compromising on taste.
Why choose an alcohol-free aperitif?
Today, far removed from constraints, the alcohol-free aperitif is a savvy, elegant, and responsible choice. Whether it's to enhance the taste experience, take better care of yourself, or simply get a breath of fresh air with new flavors associated with aperitifs, the reasons are numerous:
- Well-being/balance: without ethanol, the body is preserved, the mind remains clear.
- Gourmet/discovery: non-alcoholic recipes compete in creativity to awaken the taste buds.
- Inclusive sharing: everyone can drink, without exclusion.
At Jardins, all our drinks are designed as a true sensory creation; the excellence of the best organic ingredients is rigorously assembled to offer a tasting moment that is both rich and surprising in a range perfect for impromptu aperitifs or, on the contrary, carefully prepared ones.
Current trends: spritz, flowers and plant elegance
Among the great essentials of non-alcoholic aperitifs , two inspirations stand out: the revisited spritz , and floral cocktails à la Saint-Germain .
The alcohol-free spritz, an icon of freshness
An iconic drink of summer terraces, the spritz is reinvented alcohol-free with bitter and fruity notes, adored by lovers of bold flavors. At Jardins, Jardins Suspendus embodies this trend: a creation with a complex aromatic profile, notes of citrus and bitter plants, for an intense, refreshing, and elegant aperitif experience.
The floral spirit of Saint-Germain
Inspired by the famous elderflower liqueur cocktail, the alcohol-free Saint-Germain reveals itself to be subtle, with a delicate floral sweetness and shy elegance. It is precisely this trend that we are celebrating with Jardins Fleuris , our non-alcoholic drink made with white flowers, elderflower, and a hint of verbena. Served chilled, it is garnished with a slice of lemon and a few edible petals that add beauty to the glass.
These two creations demonstrate the diversity of non-alcoholic aperitifs: complex, luminous, never banal.
How to create a sensational alcohol-free aperitif?
For a successful appetizer, there's nothing like a certain alchemy between flavors, textures, and ambiance. Here are some suggestions for your chic and gourmet alcohol-free aperitif.
1. Offer a selection of drinks with character.
Say goodbye to industrial sodas! Opt for delicious alternatives with our sparkling herbal infusions and ready-to-drink non-alcoholic cocktails.
2. Take care with food and drink pairings.
Pair our explosive drinks with delicious and delicious aperitif bites: vegetable spreads, cheeses, assortments of rosemary crackers, olives from Provence, etc. A non-alcoholic aperitif can just as easily be gourmet.
3. Focus on staging.
Stemmed glasses, ice cubes with fresh herbs, a wooden board and subdued lighting... Give your aperitif a real atmosphere, for a suspended moment, between nature and sophistication.
