Due to various reasons I rarely drink alcohol.
My question is: what non alcoholic/GF drinks do people drink when they visit a pub/restaurant etc? I am mightily fed up with my usual tipple (lime & soda) and the usual coke etc.
Just thought I'd see if any of you had any ideas.
Just replied then realised you asked for non-alcoholic drinks!
In answer to your actual question- I tend to drink ginger beer, pineapple juice or J20 when I'm not drinking alcohol. Adding soda to fruit juices can be nice too, as can orange juice and bitter lemon.
i drink cornish rattler cider i think all cider is ok
I drink lime and lemonade, If I want an alcoholic drink I have a fruit cider.
Fruit juice, or (if alcoholic) cide and occasionally a glass of wine.
Lemon and Lime.
Fizzy water .. but have to admit I do like Greens Ginger Beer - the non-orange version but slightly alcoholic for a long drink. I also enjoy Harvey's Bristol Cream, Tia Maria and Cooymans Royal Dutch Advocaat .. which is extra thick and creamy!
I would always drink an alcoholic drink on principle. Pubs and restaurants charge extortionate prices for non-alcoholic drinks, making a huge profit on them. It is wrong to screw people who want non-alcoholic drinks.
Rant over. If I had to, I would ask for tap water to go with a meal because I hate sweet drinks. Otherwise it would be one pint of non-headbanging cider. There is a place here for some enterprising person to invent and market a non-sweet (or sour) , gluten free, alcohol free drink for sale in pubs.
CeliacUK say "Cider, wine, sherry, spirits, port and liqueurs are gluten-free.
Even when a cereal that contains gluten is used as an ingredient, all spirits are distilled during the manufacturing process and this process removes any trace of gluten. Therefore, all spirit drinks (including malt whisky which is made from barley) are safe for people with celiac disease.
Old Speckled Hen do a GF version and if you want a drink at home, Asda sell what is named as the best gluten free beer: Estrella Daura Damm £6 for a four-pack and Siansburys sell Green's Supreme Golden Ale -£1.95
Cranberry and soda 
I really like orange juice and ginger ale - never ordered it in a pub, but mixed up at home its really refreshing. Not as thick as juice on its own, not as sweet as other fizzy drinks, and not as bubbly as straight sodas.
For alcoholic drinks I go for cider every time now - sweet or dry, depending on my mood or whether I am having food with it.
Headaches when eating/drinking things that Coeliacs should be able to, does anyone have similar?
If its not in the coeliac uk food and drink directory, is it not gluten free?
