Pub Drinks for Non Drinkers (lemmy.world)

I'm doing my best to stop drinking, but my local only has Heineken 0 available. What else do you lot drink that I can reliably get in the pub, which isn't full of caffeine or sugar?

Water is about all I can think of but I'm wondering if there is something I can ask for that I'm overlooking. I'm hoping this will be like when I learned about pesto; I couldn't believe I had gone so long before eating it.

I'm a fan of ginger beer or any soft drink with ginger bitterness.
Straight tonic is also a good one.

I was going to suggest tonic, too, BUT, depending on the market, the tonic out of the gun can have loads of sugar, in the US at least. Bottled tonic like Fever Tree is pretty low sugar.
