Many people will either host or attend barbeques and gatherings to enjoy a bit of the warm weather this weekend. So what if you’re dessie driver? Or just fancy something light? With more and more non-alcoholic “spirits” available now, there are plenty of options.

Paul Lambert of Shaker and Vine in Swords joined Sean Moncrieff on the show with some suggestions:

Raspberry Cooler:

Mr L's Cosmo, fresh mint, raspberries, topped with sprite. Mr L’s cosmo is 15% abv so that makes this a light refreshing cocktail

Limoncello Spritz:

Limoncello, prosecco, soda, fresh lemon juice, sugar syrup same, it's a lower abv than spirits so makes this light and easy drinking

Pink Gin Spritz:

Kells Pink Gin, lemon juice, strawberry syrup, prosecco, and sprite are higher in alcohol but who doesn't like prosecco and strawberries.....and add pink gin......
