Difficult . Ihad an 80th to go to so took lots of tonics with me as there is alwzys someone who wants to try what you drink. I gave up gin and drink elderfĺlower cordial with tonic , and its not a bad substitute? Today i wss looking st seedlip non alcoholic spirit. How can you have non alcoholic spirit? Anyway they do have interestingng flavours but it makes an expensive experiment to buy a bottle to try. I think i will . You drink it with tonic so looks like G&T and reduces comments from old fogies. People are more tolerant of non-drinkers these days
