Elton John launched his premium non-alcoholic drink model final month, and as a pregnant girl who loves discovering issues to drink that isn’t simply one other delicate drink, I used to be all too desirous to strive it. The beloved musician needed to create a product that was for individuals who needed to “deliver a contact of sparkle to each event”. It truly mirrors a basic Blanc de Blancs whereas remaining alcohol free, however with out producing any alcohol in any respect. 

The bottle, priced at £10, is actually, respectable in relation to different merchandise in the marketplace; regardless of no alcohol being within the bottles, it doesn’t usually make the drinks exceptionally cheaper, so the £10 price ticket was nothing to bat an eyelid at, in my expertise. Nevertheless, what was value a second look was the moment luxurious really feel that emerged from the bottle, “premium” isn’t overegged in any respect.

Arriving in a blue and gold field with Elton John embossed down the facet, my first thought was wow, this packaging is attractive – a lot in order that I unboxed it extremely fastidiously to not tear the cardboard, it was gorgeous! It was actually just like the inspiration behind the field was Moet, and as an expensive model, I beloved that. However what did come as a shock was upon taking the bottle out of the field; I audibly mentioned: “That is attractive” as I used to be met with a superbly wrapped bottle with a blue ribbon and a gold sticker on the packaging.

It had a poppable high which is one other perk as a result of it feels a bit extra upmarket, which is unbelievable. One factor that I do want to speak about although is how unimaginable it truly tastes – now don’t get me incorrect, I’m no wine connoisseur, however one factor I do know effectively is an efficient alcohol-free tipple; it’s obtained the right stage of fizz to it with an unimaginable fruity flavour. The one factor it’s lacking is a few solar, actually, as a result of I might simply think about this in a glass with ice in my again backyard soaking within the solar. It’s a dream. 

I discover with some alcohol free drinks it appears like I’m ingesting it simply to really feel a bit concerned, I can say with certainty that Elton John’s Zero could be a bottle I’d choose regardless, even after I’m not pregnant it’ll most likely keep as a pleasant drink to have, particularly as I mentioned, when it’s sunny exterior; it’s February however I can image it already. I truly can’t suggest this extra.
