The Zero Proof Classic Cocktail Gift Bundle

Here are five non-alcoholic, classic cocktails you can make with the Build-a-Bar bundle right out of the box.

Old-Fashioned 

Possibly the first cocktail ever invented, this easy whiskey sipper is smooth, oaky, and delicious.

INGREDIENTS: 

  • 2 ounces BARE non-alcoholic whiskey
  • ½ ounce Liber & Co. Classic Gum Syrup

  • 1 dropperful All the Bitter Orange Bitters

DIRECTIONS: 

  1. In a mixing glass, stir together gum syrup and both bitters. 
  2. Add ice and BARE spirit, and stir to chill. 
  3. Strain into old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube. 
  4. Garnish with orange peel, if desired.

    Rum Old-Fashioned 

    The tropical spin on the original, the richer, spicier version is great for cold weather months.  

    A rum old-fashioned is poured out of a metal mixing glass and into an old-fashioned glass with a large format ice cube held by a light brown-skinned hand with peach painted nails.

    INGREDIENTS: 

    • 2 ounces ISH Caribbean spiced spirit 
    • ½ ounce Liber & Co. Classic Gum Syrup
    • 2 dropperfuls All the Bitter Orange Bitters
    • orange peel, to garnish (optional)

    2. Add ice and ISH spirit, and stir to chill. 
    3. Strain into old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube. 
    4. Garnish with orange peel, if desired.

    Negroni 

    A TZP favorite, we think this specific blend of ISH London Botanical Spirit, Lapo's, and Gnista Floral Wormwood creates the best non-alcoholic Negroni out there. If you aren’t committed to the bundle yet, we also have a fabulous ready-to-drink non-alcoholic negroni by Lapo’s.

    A table set with an orange table cloth, two yellow taper candles, a bouquet of flowers, a silver tray, a plate of sliced oranges, a Negroni cocktail, bottles of GinISH, Wilfred's Bittersweet Aperitif, and Gnista Floral Wormwood. A hand reaches from the right side holding another Negroni.

    INGREDIENTS: 

    • 1 ounce ISH London Botanical Spirit
    • 1 ounce Lapo’s Aperitivo
    • 1 ounce Gnista Floral Wormwood 
    • orange peel, to garnish (optional) 

    DIRECTIONS: 

    1. In a mixing glass, stir together ISH, Lapo's, and Gnista Floral Wormwood over ice. 
    2. Strain into old-fashioned glass filled with ice. 
    3. Garnish with orange peel, if desired.

      Boulevardier 

      Swap the ISH London Botanical Spirit for BARE non-alcoholic whiskey and you have a warmer, smokier version of the bitter classic.

        Manhattan

        All the alcohol-free bitters are the secret to making the flavor of this drink come together. Don't skimp on them!

        A crystal mixing glass, silver bar spoon, two Manhattan cocktails in coupe glasses, and a small ramekin of cherries on a gray slate surface.

        INGREDIENTS: 

        • 2 ounces BARE Non-Alcoholic Whiskey
        • ¾ ounce Gnista Floral Wormwood
        • 2 dropperfuls All the Bitter Aromatic Bitters
        • cherry, to garnish (optional) 

        DIRECTIONS: 

        1. If using, drop cherry into coupe or Nick & Nora glass.
        2. In a mixing glass, stir together BARE, Gnista Floral Wormwood, and bitters over ice. 
        3. Strain into glass over cherry and serve up.
