Alcohol Free Drinks For Parties

Why alcohol free belongs at every party
Alcohol free drinks for parties should feel right. The brief is simple: keep the sparkle, keep the flavour, and keep everyone included. REAL sparkling tea is fermented from outstanding loose-leaf tea, which delivers acidity, aroma, and fine bubbles that behave like a sparkling wine alternative, so you can raise a glass without compromise.
Choose a base that tastes like occasion
There are many sparkling non-alcoholic options. De-alcoholised wine aims to mimic familiar styles, fruit blends lean sweet, and tea-first fermentation builds structure from the leaf. REAL stands out because bright acidity cuts through canapés, the bead feels refined in a flute, and the flavours hold up across the night. Think crisp and zesty with REAL DRY, fragrant and poised with REAL SEC, and soft summer-fruit notes with REAL BLUSH.
Crowd-pleasing serves, ready in minutes
Anchor your party menu to three EASY house serves that showcase REAL. Keep ratios consistent and prep the non-sparkling elements ahead, then top with well-chilled bottles as guests arrive.
REAL BLUSH Rosé Shine: build over ice with a spoon of strawberry purée or a few crushed raspberries, add a dash of verjuice for tang, then top with REAL BLUSH. You get fresh fruit, a fine bead, and a soft pink hue that looks the part.
REAL DRY Citrus Sparkle: pour REAL DRY into a flute, add a thin twist of lemon or grapefruit, and finish with a small splash of chilled soda for lift. The result is crisp, bright, and aperitif-ready.
REAL SEC Garden Cooler: fill a tall glass with clear ice, add a ribbon of cucumber and a lightly clapped sprig of mint to release aroma, then top with REAL SEC. Herbaceous, light, and ideal once the room warms up.
Easy garnishes that add theatre
Garnishes should be simple, fast, and reusable. Build a small tray and let guests see the craft. Reach for citrus twists, edible flowers, frozen grapes, rosemary sprigs, and thin apple fans. Keep everything dry and cold so bubbles stay tight and the bar looks clean.
Sample menus that work
Brunch: open with REAL DRY and pair with smoked salmon, soft cheeses, and herby eggs. Offer REAL BLUSH alongside for guests who prefer a rounder, fruit-led profile.
Evening: start with REAL SEC for canapés, then switch to REAL DRY for main plates. Keep REAL BLUSH on ice for dessert and late-night toasts.
How much to buy per guest
Plan two serves per person in the first hour, then one serve per person for each additional hour. A 750 ml bottle of REAL poured into 125 ml flutes gives six servings. For 20 guests at a two-hour party, you need about ten bottles.
Here is the maths: 20 guests times three serves equals 60 flutes, divided by six servings per bottle equals 10. If you pour into larger glasses at 150 ml, plan five servings per bottle and adjust the count accordingly. If you prefer to be cautious, round up by one or two bottles for top-ups.
Glassware, ice, and temperature
Cold bottles, clear ice, and the right glassware turn simple pours into party moments. Keep REAL in an ice bath between service, pour at an angle to preserve a fine bead, and choose flutes for focus or white wine glasses for aroma. Pre-chill glassware if the room runs warm.
Final toast
Alcohol free drinks for parties do not need to be an afterthought. With REAL at the core, a few thoughtful serves, and the right glassware, every guest gets bubbles that feel special. That is how you host a celebration that looks good, tastes bright, and welcomes everyone.
