No alcohol

The same glass, without the alcohol.

One in four guests wants a drink without alcohol, and the usual answer is orange juice and an apology. Every drink here has a twin that looks identical on the tray, and two of the twelve are alcohol-free to begin with.

Open the finder with alcohol set to none

Alcohol-free by design

Two drinks that start without it

Both are on the main tray in their own right. Their twins run the other way: gin into the cooler, dark rum into the horchata.

The twins

Ten drinks, ten alcohol-free versions

Where a reputable source publishes an alcohol-free version, we follow it and link to it on the drink's page. Where nobody has, the twin is ours and the page says so. Either way it is served in the same glass with the same garnish, so nobody at the door has to announce what they are not drinking.

The finder splits the jug for you: choose "a mix" and it makes a quarter of the glasses alcohol-free, the share wedding planners budget for. See the batch maths for where that number comes from.
