Lyre's Non-Alcoholic Italian Orange Spirit

Superb non-alcoholic (sadly!) alternative to Campari-good with soda- and with a non-alcoholic gin makes a very enjoyable negroni-type drink; it has real body and length . also great on its own with ice. Tough to put down.

I've based my review on the fact that this has no alcohol; it would be a bit mean to compare it to the alcoholic versions. I've been ill recently and needed something without alcohol that would still make me feel I was having something special to drink. I love this stuff. When I first tasted it I checked the bottle to make sure it was alcohol-free :-). I've had it straight, with ice, and with tonic water; all lovely. The bitter orange flavour gives it a real kick, and it's not too sugary. Now I'm off to buy another bottle for Christmas. Cheers!

I've rated this based on the fact that it's non-alcoholic, so it's unfair to judge it against the real thing. I've been ill recently and needed to avoid alcohol, so I thought I'd give this a try. I've had it straight, on ice, and with tonic water, and I love it. You really do think there's alcohol in it. I put mine with a little ice in a cocktail glass and it felt special. I didn't feel I was missing out on anything. With tonic water, it's a gorgeous longer drink. So I'm just about to order another bottle for Christmas. Cheers!
