About the Nogroni
Alcohol-free cocktail recipes are often hard to come by, but this virgin cocktail is made using non-alcoholic spirit alternative Seedlip. It is a little complex, but worth it.
It’s made like a gin with botanicals, but is definitely not a gin. Ben Branson’s innovative non-alcoholic spirit alternative Seedlip is perfect for designated drivers, or those who are looking to take a break from boozing.
Made from six botanicals, Seedlip can be drunk with tonic or used to create delicious drinks such as this Negroni-inspired cocktail.
A bitter and challenging drink, made with no fewer than 21 ingredients, the lack of alcohol certainly doesn’t result in a compromise on flavour.
You can prepare the non-alcoholic rosso vermouth in advance to rapidly reduce the preparation time.
