If you're craving wine...

I just got FRE (non alcoholic wine) from my grocery store and I think it's pretty good! Albeit it tastes more like grape juice than wine, but I put it in a wine glass and it feels like a nice little treat!

Re: If you're craving wine...

  • I bought non alcoholic Chardonnay for last night (rosh hashanah dinner) from trader jos - my best friend doesn't drink so I got t for both of us. It tasted like sparkling grape juice. Waaaaa!

  • oh that reminds me I have sparkling cider in the fridge, that is happening tonight! It is so nice to not drink water for a few minutes.

  • Oh, I think FRE is gross! The first couple sips I was like, this is ok. Then I just couldn't do it anymore. I have some FRE "champagne" that I am hoping is drinkable!

  • I bought the MAD wine when I was first pregnant. It tasted like grape juice. The only similarity it had to wine was the bottle!

    The champagne is pretty decent only when made into a mimosa. Then it tastes legit!
    oh, this is an awesome idea! I am going to a tailgate saturday and was not sure what I could drink that would still look like I was drinking....

  • Or you could just have a glass of your favorite wine (gasp)!!! I had a glass of veuve cliquot this weekend and enjoyed it immensely.
  • Haha - If you are craving wine.... have some.

  • Like @Kstar83 said, I think it just felt like a treat because it wasn't water, LOL! I don't know, I like it!

    And I know it's probably safe to have a real glass of wine here and there, it's just not for me. I don't drink at all when I'm pregnant.

  • I almost bought some the other day but decided against it. I'll probably get some odouls or caliber soon though. Dh is worried about the "less than 0.5% alcohol" content in it!! Same guy who said I should drink a glass of red wine with dinner the other night haha
  • Love FRE! I tried some a couple weeks ago, and it doesn't have the full wine taste, but I think it tastes enough like wine to make me feel better LOL. I'm also a beer drinker, so I tried some O'Douls Amber at my best friends wedding, and it was actually pretty darn good, and actually tasted like an amber beer.

  • Meh, I tried non alcoholic wine a few weeks ago and it wasn't particularly enjoyable. (I'm a big wine lover!) After that, I just decided to stick to sparkling cider and a occasional glass of the real thing! ;-)

    That is my absolute fav champagne. So delicious!

    I was sort of worried about this too, but then I read that orange juice actually has more "alcohol" that non alcoholic wine, lol!

  • I wasn't a fan of the FRE red wine, but the champagne wasn't bad.

  • I haven't had a decent non-alcoholic wine, but the non-alc beers are all pretty good!  When I feel the need for wine I just get some sparkling apple cider (martinelli's is the best).  It tastes nothing like champagne, but it feels special and is yummy!
