Dry January non-alcoholic cocktails: Our mocktails – Alain Milliat

Dry January is the perfect opportunity to discover alcohol-free cocktails and delicious mocktails that combine pleasure and well-being. Born in the United Kingdom, this challenge invites consumers to reduce or stop drinking alcohol to adopt a more balanced lifestyle and offset the excesses of the holiday season.

This year, Maison Alain Milliat is supporting you in this process with its Concentrates to Dilute , a 100% organic collection, made in France, designed to create refined alcohol-free cocktails without compromising on taste.

With three exceptional flavors – Yuzu , Ginger , and Passion Fruit – these concentrates allow you to create elegant, lower-calorie mocktails while still enjoying your drink. Discover our essential recipe ideas to make Dry January a pleasant break.

The Aromatic Profile of Our Concentrates to Dilute

Ginger: Power & Heat

A powerful recipe thanks to an "aged" ginger from Madagascar, underlined by the invigorating and smoky heat of the Langue d'Oiseau chili. Softened by an infusion of verbena and enhanced by a hint of Sicilian lime juice, this composition offers a unique intensity.

Yuzu: Bitterness & Freshness

A fresh bitterness from a high-altitude Japanese yuzu, combined with infusions of gentian and bergamot. Complemented with Sicilian lemon juice, this recipe offers a harmonious and refined freshness.

Passion Fruit: Tangy & Exotic

An intense and exotic creation, with yellow passion fruit "maracuja", spicy and woody black pepper from Madagascar, and a touch of Sicilian lime to bring freshness and balance.
