Giffard launched Giffard Triple Sec Alcohol Free, a non-alcoholic orange liqueur now available in the UK through distributor Mangrove Global. Developed using a traditional shrub-making process, the product macerates bitter and sweet orange peels in French wine vinegar to recreate the citrus profile and complexity associated with classic triple sec liqueurs.
The release expands Giffard’s Alcohol Free portfolio, which also includes flavors such as Grapefruit, Pineapple, Elderflower, Ginger and Spritz. Mangrove positioned the product as a key ingredient for alcohol-free cocktails, highlighting its use alongside Almave, a non-alcoholic agave spirit, to create a zero-proof Margarita. The launch coincides with the regional heats of the 2026 Giffard West Cup cocktail competition.
For bartenders and consumers, the product offers a dedicated alcohol-free alternative to a foundational cocktail ingredient that has traditionally lacked credible substitutes. The launch reflects growing demand for sophisticated no- and low-alcohol drink components that preserve the flavor structure and versatility of classic cocktail recipes.
