Athletic Brewing Co.: Looking for craft beers without the buzz? Athletic Brewing Co. has you covered.

Ritual Zero Proof: Made to mimic the flavors of standard spirits like tequila, gin and whiskey, Ritual Zero Proof liquor alternatives are great for making mocktails that taste like the real thing. These spirit substitutes can be used 1-to-1 in cocktail recipes to replicate everything from margaritas and Manhattans to a classic G&T or old fashioned without the alcohol (or the calories).
Giesen Wines: Giesen Wines is on a mission to revolutionize the world of non-alcoholic wine. How do they do it? Their Giesen 0% Sauvignon Blanc is first made into wine from quality New Zealand grapes and is then gently dealcoholized to preserve the fresh fruit flavors and crisp acidity. With 0% alcohol and 100% flavor, it’s a perfect picnic wine with cheese and charcuterie.
Try it with Cypress Grove Humboldt Fog: With its signature ribbon of vegetable ash, this soft-ripened goat cheese from Humboldt, California has notes of buttermilk with floral and herbaceous overtones that shine when enjoyed with fresh fruit, artisan crackers and a good glass of wine.
Drop by your local Nugget Markets to find these and other fantastic beverages and be sure to ask our talented wine stewards for more recommendations and pairings while you’re there. Cheers!
