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.

A very popular non-alcoholic drink in Germany is "Apfelschorle". It's half apple juice and half soda water. While apple juice is still pretty sugary, you cut that in half by adding water. In British pubs they often have fruit juice in small bottles, so just pour that in a pint glass, add soda and you're done.

This was the favourite last night, thank you for this. It's tasty and looks normal around the usual beers and ciders at the table. I'm probably going to keep drinking them.

But be careful. Before you know it, you'll be reporting people to the police for throwing their rubbish into the wrong bin.

I do the same thing with orange juice.
