SPIRIT ALTERNATIVES

LIQUEUR

Amaretti, £23.50 (700ml), lyres.co.uk This innovative brand has done a great job of recreating amaretto without booze. It’s sweet, almondy, rich and special. Well-chilled, this would be a lovely way to end a meal, or transition into cocktails.

GIN

Sea Buckthorn, £18.99 (500ml), baxbotanics.com This has a really complex flavour profile – it’s rich in ginger, rosemary and chamomile, but softened by the sea buckthorn. It pairs brilliantly with tonic.
