Cheers to alcohol-free events

June 17, 2025Lauren Windle

Throwing a fun, memorable event doesn’t necessarily mean alcohol has to play a part.

At Jacquie’s Gourmet Catering, we get that there are times non-alcoholic and spirit-free drinks are ideal – especially when an event includes young people or those who choose not to drink – for whatever reason. We’re happy to work with you to create an inclusive environment for all.

How to throw a “NA” event:

  • Create positivity around your NA right off the bat. Some of our clients have called their events Zero-proof or Spirit-free, which we find clever and engaging.
  • Then, have fun with offering multiple spirit-free drinks that will whet the imagination every bit as much as they whet the appetite!
  • We can offer tonic waters, gingers, sparkling sodas, lime and lemon, and fruit mixers. After all, these essential beverages are responsible for ¾ of every alcoholic beverage, so why not make them the centerpiece of your mocktails?
  • Arnold Palmers, anyone? Esp refreshing at outdoor events.
  • There’s a lot of alcohol-free beer and wine out there -- national brands as those from local breweries. We are happy to stock them.
  • Sparkling bottles of champagne-like beverages look and taste so very similar to the real thing – right down to the label!
  • Our bartenders can help come up with a mocktails or two.Name them after the hosts, the event, the date, or an organization. (One bride and groom each named a beverage after their dogs, who were in the wedding. Very fun.) 

Lots of special events are planned without including alcoholic beverages.

Our bartenders and staff will be happy to help make going “spirit-free” adventurous and light-hearted – as well as healthy and positive.
