Invite Everyone To The Festive Party With Savyll Alcohol-Free Cocktail
Whether you’re the designated driver, a mum-to-be or moderating your alcohol intake, research shows that more of us are opting for alcohol-free drinks. This fabulous Savyll non-alcoholic cocktail gift set is the perfect way to make everyone feel part of the festive celebrations!
Savyll cocktails have been carefully crafted using a unique blend of natural ingredients to recreate the sophisticated flavours, familiarity and sense of occasion that cocktails bring, with a premium selection of the world’s most popular variations.
They have a beautifully presented gift box that features a choice of either Savyll’s best-selling collection Bellini, Gin & Tonic, Moscow Mule and Mojito OR you choose a box of four from their fabulous range, which also includes Spiced Rum & Cola and Old Cuban.
“Pronounced “sah-vell” – meaning to be ‘savoured by all’ Savyll cocktails can be served directly from their elegant signature glass bottles and enjoyed without the need for mixers or other embellishments – simply chill, serve and sip!
The range is vegan-friendly, gluten free and free from any listed allergens and artificial sweeteners.
Savyll was founded by “dinner party mixologist” Avnish Babla. When he became an expectant father, Avnish wanted a healthier lifestyle for himself and his wife, Diana. Moderating alcohol consumption was important to him. However, he soon discovered there was a limited choice of non-alcoholic drinks that weren’t overly sweetened or artificially flavoured. Together with an award-winning beverage developer, Avnish turned his cocktail crafting passion into a mission to reinvent their alcohol-free namesakes, so anyone choosing to moderate or abstain can enjoy without compromise.
“I’ve always loved entertaining friends and family, and to experiment with new, unique cocktail ideas,” says Avnish, “but after choosing to moderate my own alcohol intake when my wife became pregnant, like many people, I felt removed from the sense of occasion and sophisticated taste complexities of alcoholic drinks.”
“As our branding suggests, we believe cocktails should be savoured to enjoy the intricate flavours. Savyll Cocktails are an alcohol-free reinvention of this principle, crafted with all of the exuberance, ambition and curiosities of cocktails so young and old, drinkers, moderators and abstainers can all enjoy the party – Savyll Cocktails can be savoured by all!
I have tried these non-alcoholic cocktails and I think they are great. So many of these non-alcoholic, or even pre-mixed cocktails, taste awful, like they are full of chemicals. Not these ones from Savyll. I would definitely buy these for some sparkly fun. They are perfect for Christmas of dry January.

Festive Cocktail Guide Vol. 2 ft Three Spirit Social Elixir
This year the market and demand for non-alcoholic spirits and beverages have boomed and more and more bars and restaurants are offering a much more exciting and varied non-alcoholic alternative menu. Accessing non-alcoholic bets has becoming so much more easier and it seems we can now treat ourselves with something other than the boring juice and ‘mocktail’ options that appear as an add-on to every drinks menu.
This year we were treated to a host of tastings and samples of more and more innovative non alcoholic beverages and our favourite this far has to be;
Three Spirit
The World’s first non-alcoholic ’Social Elixir’.
Created in a lab this came about as an experiment to create a plant-based alternative to alcohol…’for the bold the curious and for the good times with those who matter the most.’ The bold and curiously flavoured drink contains 11 plants, herbs and mushrooms which have been used for centuries in ceremonies and potions. Don’t be discouraged by the mushroom element… we are talking the strictly non magic kind, however Three Spirit does make you feel good made with an expert blend of plants and active compounds intended for the purpose of taste and effect. This goes without saying Three Spirit is Vegan-Friendly and Gluten Free!!!!
Some of the ingredients included their Social Elixir blend are;
Lion’s Mane Mushroom which promotes cognitive function and mood,
Tulsi which fights stress and introduces balance
Damiana which is well…er an aphrodisiac
Coconut Vinegar which promotes gut health
to name a few…
The serving suggestions for this drink are just stunning…

Cakes from Paul
Christmas Igloo Cake £19.95
Super sweet and made for children. Adults will love it too. Serves 6-8 people and looks too good to eat. Made with light chocolate sponge, smooth white and dark chocolate mousse with a lining of hazelnut craquant, vanilla cream and covered in a thin layer of white chocolate. Divine, just divine.
Bûche Amande Abricot £28.95
An alternative to a chocolate cake, this is delicious and refreshing. Fruity and full of flavour. Has edible pearls of gold, loaded with semi-candied apricot pieces and a nutty almond crunch and then wrapped in a light and fluffy sponge with smooth vanilla and almond mile mousse.
