The holiday marathon is over and our liver is asking for an armistice, but our social life has clearly not said its last word. Good news: in 2026, Dry January is no longer an austere punishment based on water and industrial orange juice. The “no-alcohol” revolution has arrived, transforming the January challenge into a true exploration of possibilities while keeping the taste and conviviality of happy hour!
From botanical spirits to dealcoholized wines that keep getting better every year, I have tested non-alcoholic products for you that remain festive, and I am presenting them in this article. It’s the perfect opportunity to toast with style, with extra flavor and less of a headache. I will also regularly update this selection with my new “alcohol-free” discoveries.

Oh My Baie
Oh my Baie is a new French non-alcoholic wine brand (0.0%) founded by Charlotte Burckhard. Passionate about the wine world, she came up with the product during her second pregnancy. She conceived it as a chic and inclusive alternative to traditional wine, allowing everyone to enjoy convivial moments without alcohol.
The range consists of two premium non-alcoholic wines from the South of France, created through a dealcoholization process via very low-temperature distillation: a rosé (Syrah, Grenache, Marselan, Merlot) with fruity and floral aromas, and a white (Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Rolle) with notes of white fruits, citrus, and flowers. Low in sugar, they offer freshness and balance, perfect for Mediterranean pairings. Presented in reusable bottles, they are available for €17.

Petit Béret
Le Petit Béret is a brand dedicated to non-alcoholic products, based in Puisserguier in a château at the heart of the Domaine de Milhau, in a magnificent wooded park surrounded by vineyards, in the heart of the AOC Saint-Chinian. I had the chance to discover it on-site during one of my trips to the Hérault region. This company was created in 2015 by Fathi Benni and Dominique Laporte, Best Craftsman of France and Best Sommelier of France.

Bonne Nouvelle
Bonne Nouvelle has been a pioneer in the field of non-alcoholic wines since the late 80s. It belongs to the Cordier by InVivo group. In January 2026, it is launching a new range of 3 flavored vintages (Rosé Grapefruit; White Passion Fruit; White Peach) with a gourmet approach, designed to accompany Dry January… but also all the convivial moments of the year. Their drinks are made from real wines whose alcohol has been extracted through a vacuum evaporation dealcoholization process. They are also very attractive with a low price (€3.99 per bottle) and are easily found in supermarkets.

Bordeaux Families
This cooperative cellar brings together 300 families of Bordeaux winemakers. We discovered their Aura 0.0% vintage, a dealcoholized sparkling drink associated with the Louis Vallon signature. Made from dealcoholized French wines, this sparkling drink offers a balanced profile with seductive aromas of white peach and tropical fruits. Positioned at around €14.50, this vintage offers a refined alternative to classic crémants for an aperitif or dessert.

Citadelle 0.0
A pioneer of artisanal gin since the early 90s, Citadelle has established itself under the impetus of Alexandre Gabriel by prioritizing craftsmanship and natural taste. The distillery is located in Charente, next to Cognac. True to the expertise of Maison Ferrand, the brand launched Citadelle 0.0 (€19.90) in January 2026, which uses a gentle hydrodistillation technique inspired by perfumery to capture the essence of 19 botanicals. This artisanal process makes it possible to maintain great aromatic complexity without any alcohol production. The result is a fresh and spicy distillate, structured by a peppery kick that ensures a beautiful finish. Ideal in a cocktail with tonic, it offers an uncompromising alternative for those who wish to rediscover the authentic character of Citadelle gin but without the alcohol.
