Making cocktails at home is fun, but if you’re looking for a ready-made, booze-free drink to knock back, several Houston companies bottle or can excellent options. Here are five of our favorites.
Karbach Brewing Free & Easy NA IPA
The Spring Branch brewery came out with its first non-alcoholic beer this year. Free & Easy is an IPA-style malt beverage with citrusy notes from the blend of five hops, balanced by a hint of sweetness. There is less than 0.5% alcohol by volume in the drink, so this is not a good option for those avoiding alcohol strictly. $9 for a 6-pack; karbachbrewing.com
Kickin’ Kombucha
Kombucha, the tangy fermented tea, is all the rage for a reason. Kickin’ started in 2012 and is now available at Whole Foods, retail stores and its taproom in the East End. Kickin’ offers a range of fun year-round and rotating seasonal flavors, such as Blackberry Coolcumber and Everyberry Hibiscus. Because ‘booch is fermented, it contains a trace of alcohol. $3; kickinkombuchapickup.com
Pat Greer’s Kitchen Kombucha
Pat Greer is Houston’s O.G. vegan. She opened her plant-based food business out of her own kitchen in 2006. Greer’s meals, snacks and sweet treats are great, but her kombucha should not be slept on either. It comes in flavors like Lemon Cayenne and Spicy Ginger. $4; patgreerskitchen.com
Saint Arnold Brewing Root Beer
Texas’ oldest craft brewery makes a non-alcoholic root beer, made with Imperial cane sugar. The Saint Arnold team decided to produce one because a lot of families came to the brewery with children, and it’s been a hit ever since. If you make it to the taproom, ask for their hopped sparkling water — trust us. $7 for a 6-pack; saintarnold.com
Thirdborn Ginger Beer
Erin Simpson’s search for a not-too-sweet ginger beer resulted in Thirdborn, a perfectly spicy, refreshing version. The classic ginger lemon, extra ginger, ginger jalapeño lime, and rotating seasonal flavors like strawberry ginger are available at the Urban Harvest Farmers Market, Local Foods, Henderson & Kane and other local outlets. $5; thirdborngingerbeer.com
