About this deal

Gin is often a drink of choice for those of us watching our waistlines thanks to its slightly lower number of calories per serving when compared with other alcoholic drinks. In a press release, the manufacturer said that 'Gordon's 0.0% is created by distilling the same botanicals used in Gordon's Special Dry London Gin, capturing the essence of Gordon's in a delicious alcohol-free alternative'. As you can see the flavour profile of Gordon’s Alcohol-Free Gin is based upon the original. However, while the flavours are looking to marry up to the original drink, there is a rather unfortunate fundamental difference – that is the extreme level of sweetness in Gordon’s zero alcohol variant. I’m also a big fan of the fact that it’s easy to distinguish between the non-alcoholic and alcoholic versions of Gordon’s famous green bottle. You’re not going to take this home by mistake thinking that it’s the real thing. The Gordon’s Alcohol-Free gin has an extremely sweet overlay that makes it the sweetest non-alcoholic Gin I have tried. If you prefer a more traditional tasting option (that is easy to find in the UK) I, like I mentioned above, have written about Lyre’s Dry London Gin which you should read more about here.

Of course, if you do want an alcoholic drink then we have options as well. Our selection of fine wines can turn any night into one of luxury. Whereas our ciders will bring out memories of the summer in your tastebuds. Gordon’s, you will be unsurprised to know, claims to be the “World’s Favourite Gin”. Whether or not that’s true is up for debate, but it certainly is the world’s best-selling gin, which is a pretty stellar achievement when you take into account the fact that the spirit's popularity has been on the rise for nigh on a decade. Those looking to cut down on their alcohol intake will be pleased to discover that they can also significantly cut their calorie intake when drinking Gordon's Alcohol Free 0.0%. We are committed to providing choice for different occasions and we don’t think people should have to miss out on the flavour or the experience when choosing an alcohol-free drink.” If you’re looking for a sweeter profiled alcohol free gin this may be one for you, however, if you’re looking for other options, find yourself a new favourite in the post I wrote with over 20 non-alcoholic gin options!

Disclaimer

A 50ml measure of Gordon's Special Dry London Gin contains 104 calories, which is roughly the same as two ginger nut biscuits. What you should take from this is that you shouldn’t expect mad savings on this, or any similar drink, just because there’s no alcohol. This is a perfect companion to those doing Dry January, those who've made a new year’s resolution to ditch alcohol, or folk fancy filling a gin-shaped hole but don’t want morning headache. Both of our testers are gin lovers who were both planning on doing Dry January until this taste test assignment came along, which they couldn't resist.

To put that into context - an entire 70cl bottle of Gordon's 0.0% contains less than 0.1 units of alcohol. Calories in gin: how does alcohol-free compare? Best of all, you can drink it while writing a review and make it to the end coherently. Cheers to that. Nose Both testers found Gordon's Alcohol Free 0.0% had a much stronger smell than Gordon's Special Dry London Gin, with sweet herby scents coming through with particular dominance. If you want to drink a beer, wine, or gin, but don’t want the alcohol, discover our no alcohol range. Many of your favourite brands and tastes are here, simply with zero-percent alcohol. So, whether your having a social drink or a beverage with dinner, you only have to miss out on the alcohol, not on the moment! It's also important to know that Gordon's Alcohol Free 0.0% isn't entirely devoid of alcohol. Gordon's says that it contains no more than 0.015% ABV, so there is in fact a trace of alcohol in each bottle.

The best alcohol-free gins you can buy in 2023

No, it’s not the most convincing gin taste in the world, but it does taste good, and has all the elements you’re looking for in a G&T. And because you’re pouring it from an iconic green bottle, mixing it with tonic and adding typical flourishes, the ritual of making a gin remains intact. The design is immediately recognisable as Gordon's, but there's little chance of mixing up the non-alcoholic version with its boozy counterpart. Taste I’d say the biggest pleasure is in the routine — putting the ice in the glass, pouring the gin, adding the tonic, garnishing and drinking. And in the same way long-term vegetarians insist that the aforementioned fake meat is indistinguishable from the real thing, I think that long enough drinking Gordon’s Alcohol free could convince you that this is what gin tastes like. Per 50ml (a double shot), Gordon's London Dry Gin — the stuff you're most likely to buy on supermarket shelves — contains 104 calories. A can of regular tonic will probably take that up to around 170 calories, while a can of slimline will take it to around 120.

Or explore our mixers to dilute a stronger alcohol to taste. From tonics to tomato juice, we have products to help you mix up your drinks. And if you want to gift some drinks to your friends and family, then take a look at our miniatures and gifting selection. And if you want to join them drinking your gift, then who can blame you? Remember to always drink alcohol in moderation, though. Those watching their waistlines this January will be pleased to know that the alcohol free version contains just six calories per 50ml, meaning that the bulk of your calorie intake in this drink will come from the tonic water you use. However, the fact that around one in five drinkers (7.9 million people) in the UK planned to partake in Dry January this year — as well as a more general trend away from alcohol consumption, especially among younger folk — means that Gordon’s had to hop on the wagon sooner or later. Enter Gordon’s Alcohol Free…When you taste it “neat” is when this is most evident. Of course, unless you’re reviewing the drink like me or are doing so out of pure curiosity, you’re unlikely to try the “gin” by itself. It’s certainly more pleasurable to drink unpaired with tonic than actual gin is; after all, there’s none of that wincing pungency that alcohol is responsible for. The first thing I’d like to praise Gordon’s for is the fact that its non-alcoholic gin is very clearly distinguishable from its boozy counterpart. The launch is part of the brand’s innovation strategy and follows the release of new products including Gordon’s 0.0% and flavoured bottlings Tropical Passionfruit and Morello Cherry.
