<\/a>What is Non Alcoholic Gin?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Non alcoholic gin is essentially gin with the alcohol removed. It is made with all the same ingredients as a classic gin and in much the same way. Once the gin is complete and the flavors have developed the alcohol is removed through a distillation process. The result- delicious, alcohol free gin! But let\u2019s look a little closer\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>How to Make Non-Alcoholic Gin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Non alcoholic gin is made just like traditional gin. The botanical blend is mashed and macerated in a neutral alcohol. The gin then sits to infuse the flavors into the alcohol. The mix goes through multiple rounds of distillation to remove the alcohol and leave behind just the flavored liquid. No alcohol is left but all the flavor of great gin<\/a> remains!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some non alcoholic gins are made just by steeping the botanicals in water, skipping the alcohol and distillation process. These gins still taste great but are just made in a different way. You will have to try a few non alcoholic gin brands to see which methods you think make the gin taste the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>What Does Non Alcoholic Gin Taste Like<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gin was first made from grain mash but today, it can be made from grapes, apples or even potatoes. The flavor of the base will contribute to the taste of the gin and non alcoholic gins are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gin is also traditionally made with juniper berries. Every non alcoholic gin we looked at also had juniper berries as the main flavor, making it taste close to the real thing. Juniper berries have a piney and citrus taste. They are sweet and aromatic and that is the flavor you will taste the most in non alcoholic gins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Non alcoholic gins are also flavored with other types of essences. Citrus, coriander, cinnamon, ginger<\/a> and cardamom are common spices in non-alcoholic gins. They will be lacking the strong taste of ethanol alcohol and lacking the traditional bite of real gin. However, many non alcoholic brands will add more pepper or spice to get that potent taste back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every brand will be different! So which is best? Let\u2019s find out\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
