3. Citrus Breakfast Mocktail
The best part of alcohol-free combinations is that they can be made in the morning for a breakfast pick-me-up. Bonus points for adding a CBD-infused drink for a calm and balanced mind. If you’ve got a little extra time when you wake up, this citrus breakfast mocktail will add a pep in your step.

4. Italian Soda
This one is a fun, almost milkshake-like recipe. It’s reminiscent of being a kid and picking your favourite flavoured fizzy drink, like cream soda or cherryade. Though, an Italian Soda definitely sounds more adult. In this recipe, we’ve swapped the traditional soda for TRIP’s Peach Ginger CBD drink.
Serves: 1
Ingredients
- 1 can TRIP’s Peach Ginger CBD
- 45ml of a flavoured syrup of your choice (orange blossom goes with peaches)
- 30ml of heavy cream, or half and half, depending on your preference
Method
- Fill a large glass with ice (we love fountain glasses for this recipe)
- Add your syrup and slowly pour in the Peach Ginger
- Stir gently, top with cream, and serve
5. Glow Water
A water recipe? Doesn’t sound very exciting, but we promise you that this is an enjoyable non-alcoholic drink for summer. As sparkling water is a key ingredient in our CBD drinks, it’s perfect for this concoction. We use TRIP’s Peach Ginger here, which contains 15mg of premium CBD.
Serves: 3
Ingredients
- 3 cans of TRIP’s Peach Ginger
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 peach, sliced
Method
- Combine the cans of peach ginger with the slices of peach (added flavour!) and a cinnamon stick
- Stir to release more flavour from the fruit and cinnamon
- Serve immediately, or chill in the fridge until ready to drink
What alcoholic drinks are gluten-free?
Standard beer normally contains barley, rye or wheat, which means it’s off the menu if you can’t consume gluten. Though, you can buy gluten-free beer.
All wines, spirits and liqueurs are gluten-free because of the production method. When the liquids are distilled during manufacturing, the gluten is removed. Cider, sherry and port are also on the gluten-free alcohol list.
What is the most refreshing drink on a hot day?
The most refreshing drink on a hot day is water; it’s the best hydrator. But we know water isn’t everyone’s first choice. Lemonade is a top favourite though. This is because the sourness of the citrus fruit stimulates saliva, which can give the impression of hydration. Its acidity also conceals the sweetness, and sugary flavours are known to be the least hydrating.
What can I replace drinking alcohol with?
There are so many alternatives to alcohol. From sparkling water and soda with fresh fruit to mocktails, flavoured kombucha and alcohol-free versions, you’re spoilt for choice. These can taste as good as drinks containing alcohol, just without any anxious feelings the day after.
We’ve used our TRIP CBD drinks in these recipes as many customers love them as an alcohol replacement. There’s nothing more invigorating than waking up without a hangover, so we hope you enjoy making these non-alcoholic summer drinks!
