My solution to alcohol-free liquor that lacks “bite” is to consume proper liquor that does have alcohol in it. Seriously, just do it in moderation, unless you have liver disease. The doctor who tells you to avoid all alcohol is likely to then go off for a nice dinner accompanied by a fine bottle of Cabernet. It’s all about lifestyle balance. I may expire before this board does, and it may be due to alcohol, but I want it to be said that “he left with a smile on his face”.
