Do you like Ginger Ale? I find that a nice alternative.

I love it, but it doesn't come as cheap.
Sayin that, I'll check out Sainsbury's own next time I'm in there.

still cheaper than booze and it's associated costs, though.

I've recently discovered a really nice non-alcoholic australian drink caled Peachee, Lovely! And it comes in a bottle that's quite like a lager bottle.

Orangina is disgusting! Junkies drink it to smooth out the withdrawal...as if!

I drank Fresca last night. QED with NO hangover.

I've looked it up and it's cheaper than I thought.

And yes - the associated costs far outweigh the actual cost of drinking. For example as well as high blood pressure which I am now worying about, I also have at least six stone to lose before my BMI even gets down to Normal. This is a more important consideration than the fact I can get hold of the maximum units of alcohol for a week for less than £3.

But with 3l of Diet Ginger Ale for £1.20 I have no excuse in that direction either

SG, consider cans instead of the 3-litre if you like fizz.

We can't get it in cans, but the three litres is a bulk-buy deal, 3 x 1 litre bottles for £1.20, so it should stay fizzy.

Limey - I know what you mean. Every time I find a new adult soft drink they stop selling it in my nearest supermarket...

Tesco Ginger Beer was my wife's favorite. She still pines for it. I think they even have a diet variety.

I had a shit-ton of Diet Dr. Pepper last night. And a dozen break and bake cookies.

There really is a gap in the market for a non-sweet, non-alcoholic drink; even fruit juice is cloying if you're on it all evening. I think that calling something "alcohol free beer" or "alcohol free wine" sets up your taste buds for something they don't get, and it's always going to be a disappointment. Perhaps they should re-market Kaliber (alcohol free beer in UK) with a totally 'nother name, not beer related at all, but as something to swill down the pub when you're the designated driver. Ditto "Eisberg" alcohol free wine. People then might take it for itself - a non-sweet soft drink.
At home, at the moment, "cranberry, raspberry and elderflower tea" is fitting the bill, and I'm vaguely wondering what it is like chilled ...
