This Is Not Alcohol: Teas, Ferments and Mixed Drinks to Make at Home

By Imogen Hayes and Christina Trabucco

This Is Not Alcohol is an inspiring collection of 40 recipes for drinks with maximum flavor and zero buzz.

Created for fermenters, foodies, tea lovers, and anyone who's stepped away from alcohol but still craves complex, interesting flavors, this book goes beyond simple substitutes. These drinks aren't just alcohol replacements - they're beverages to enjoy all day, every day. Many double as gut-loving tonics, while others are modern twists on ancient traditions. Think: 48-hour oolong, rose matcha latte, elderflower ginger beer, and pineapple & Taj n spritz. Perfect for sipping in the sun with friends or savoring quietly at home.

Organised into three sections - Built on Tea, Living Drinks, and Mixed Drinks - the recipes span moods, moments and occasions.

Authors Chrissie Trabucco and Imogen Hayes believe non-alcoholic options should be more than sugary mocktails or zero beers. Their recipes highlight the power of herbs, fruits, tea, and coffee to create depth, balance, and flavour.

Throughout history, drinks have brought people together - from ancient tea ceremonies to the first coffee houses. Today, a growing number of people are finding connection and celebration without alcohol. This Is Not Alcohol shows just how vibrant and satisfying that world can be.
