Zero-proof drinks are evolving with brands like Lyre's and Seedlip introducing complex non-alcoholic cocktails that imitate traditional spirits. Despite this progress, a recurring issue remains: the overwhelming sweetness in many drinks, even those intended to be bitter like the Negroni. This trend leaves non-drinkers wanting more variety, especially dry or savory options, which are scarce. The author showcases their personal challenge of finding balanced non-alcoholic drinks, emphasizing that most drinks on the market still lean heavily on sugary flavors rather than exploring the deeper complexities of savory notes.
"It's clear that while zero-proof drinks continue to improve in flavor and complexity, one major challenge remains: the overwhelming sweetness of these beverages."
"The current non-alcoholic offerings, like Lyre's and Seedlip, showcase creativity, yet they fall short in diversity of flavors, particularly in the dry, savory realm."
