ZEO's Botanical Dry is a new non-alcoholic spirit that was created to replicate the flavor and mouthfeel of alcohol. Over the course of a few years, the creators of ZEO perfected its own blend of nine natural botanicals to create a zero-ABV spirit that can be enjoyed as an alternative to gin or vodka. As the brand promises, "crisp, aromatic and with the same warmth as alcohol, you’d never guess Botanical Dry is a non-alcoholic spirit."
Botanical Dry can be added to cocktails or consumed on its own to appreciate its citrus-forward flavors. As well as being free from alcohol, Botanical Dry contains no gluten or sugar, plus it's vegan-friendly and lower in calories than its alcoholic counterparts.
ZEO also makes an amber-colored Spiced Oak that's perfect for making an Old Fashioned sans the alcohol.
