The Best Canned Mocktails To Sip On Whenever

The non-alcoholic beverage market is continuing to expand. From non-alcoholic beers to alcohol-free liquors, there’s constantly new drinks hitting the scene — including canned mocktails. What’s more convenient than a pre-made cocktail that tastes exactly like the real thing, except with no alcohol? And it’s in a can — no assembly required. All you need to do is crack it open, maybe pour it into a fancy glass with some garnishes, and enjoy. With the market expanding so rapidly, a ton of brands have come onto the scene with their own canned mocktails. Here are the ones you absolutely need to try.

Ghia

Ghia’s Le Spritz line of drinks features a variety of creative cocktails — in a can. With five different flavor options to choose from, there’s something for everyone. The Le Spritz Blood Orange combines the brand’s signature bitter (non-alcoholic) apéritif and the refreshing, citrus-flavored sweetness of blood orange. If you’re into more savory flavors, there’s the Le Spritz Lime & Salt. The Le Spritz Ghia-Soda is the spritzed version of the brand’s signature bitter apéritif, with earthy and citrusy flavors. There’s even Le Spritz Sumac & Chili, for those spice lovers, and Le Spritz Ghia-Ginger, for those who crave that slow burn of ginger.

Mocktail Club

Mocktail Club challenges the norm by offering flavors and ingredients that aren’t always found in your average non-alcoholic beverage. With exotic options like Bali Breeze and Bombay Fire, Cocktail Club offers flavor combinations you can only get in these cans. The Havana Twist has the refreshing flavor of cucumber and mint, while the cardamom and clovers provide complexity. From the Manhattan Berry to the Capri Spritz, Mocktail Club has a variety of fun, flavor-packed canned mocktails.

St. Agrestis 

St. Agrestis has mastered the art of the mock-negroni, calling it the Phony Negroni. You can purchase it in either bottle or can form, but the drink is still the same — a non-alcoholic version of a classic cocktail. If a regular negroni isn’t your favorite, St. Agrestis offers a variety of variations, such as the Phony White Negroni and the Phony Mezcal Negroni.

De Soi

If you’re looking to get your hands on some non-alcoholic apéritifs, De Soi is the brand for you. With six different varieties, there’s plenty of flavors to choose from — all of them being combined into a non-alcoholic, sparking apéritif. The St. Moritz Mule blends the flavors of pomegranate, ginger, cranberry, and rosemary, while the Purple Lune combines rich forest berries and vanilla oak. 

Pentire

Pentire is for the nature enjoyers. All of Pentire’s canned mocktails are infused with refreshing coastal flavors, making them perfect for enjoying on a hike or at the beach. The Paloma is not your average paloma — it features distilled coastal botanicals, along with pink grapefruit, lime, agave, and soda. The Coastal Spritz blends these botanicals with blood range, sea rosemary, and oakwood, making the perfect sip for ocean lovers. Lastly, the Margarita puts an oceanic twist on the norm, mixing coastal botanicals with the flavors of lime, chilli, sea salt, and agave. 

Mingle

Mingle offers all of the classic cocktails — but with no alcohol, and in a can. What’s better than cracking open a can of an already-made cosmopolitan? Mingle has the Cranberry Cosmo Mocktail, a sparkling, tart, and slightly sweet beverage. From bellinis to margaritas, Mingle has all the cocktail staples —in mocktail can form.
