One of the most common questions we get at Sobr Market is about alcohol by volume (ABV) in non-alcoholic beverages. Many customers specifically ask for 0.0% ABV options, believing that anything above 0% still contains alcohol. However, the reality is that drinks labeled as 0.0%, 0%, and even 0.5% are all considered alcohol-free in Canada. Understanding the science and regulations behind these labels can help you make informed decisions about your beverage choices.
This comprehensive guide by Søbr Market will immerse you in the diverse world of non-alcoholic drinks, exploring their evolution, the various categories available, the art of food pairing, navigating social settings, and even inspiring you to create your own delicious concoctions.
