UNBOXING: April JOMO Box
The sun has started shining. The clocks have changed bringing more day light and JOMO have been enjoying cocktails and coffees in the garden. For many of us, sunshine triggers the feeling of needing to drink! What we are starting to realise however is if we have our favourite non-alcoholic cocktails at home, all those feelings of needing a drink are fulfilled. Our brain doesn’t feel the FOMO and instead we get to enjoy the sunshine and the moment WITH cocktails, just without the booze.
For the first time this month, we showcased a very different alcohol-free spirit. An amaretti which can sometimes take a little more experimentation than your traditional alcohol free G&T, but the best bit about it is the sweet lovers LOVE it and those who prefer less sweet flavours can change the ingredients to suit their palate too by adding lemon juice or adding a little less spirit.

Rebels 0.0%
Rebels have a full alcohol-free spirit range including this months’ Amaretti. Using natural botanicals, a double distilled method and locally produced, Rebels have created an award winning range of spirits.

Thank you to everyone who continues to make JOMO what it is and to help us bang the alcohol free drum. When launching JOMO Club our inspiration was to help people discover the best tasting alternatives to alcohol on the market. In reality (and said with as much modesty as we can), we have inspired others, helped some change their relationship with alcohol forever, motivate others to stay sober through great drinks and even helped the alcohol-free industry to grow. We never expected such a thing and we are truly humbled to have made an impact on anybody’s life.
