Giffard non-alc triple sec lands in UK

Mangrove Global will distribute Giffard Triple Sec Alcohol Free in the UK, with the product said to address ‘one of the most persistent gaps’ behind the bar.

Joel Defries, marketing director at Mangrove Global, said: “Right now, the Margarita is the drink of the moment, and everybody needs a triple sec to make it work. The demand for no/low alternatives is only growing, and Giffard is leading the way with this alcohol-free version. “Anyone at London’s BCB will tell you, our Margaritas paired with Almave were flying out. “This is the real deal, and it will become an absolute staple in every serious bar programme.” Giffard Triple Sec Alcohol Free is made using a traditional shrub technique, in which bitter and sweet orange peels are macerated in French wine vinegar. Mangrove distributes other products in the Giffard Alcohol Free range, such as Grapefruit, Pineapple, Elderflower, Ginger, and Spritz. The launch coincides with the regional heats of the 2026 Giffard West Cup cocktail competition. The contest challenges bartenders to create two connected drinks: one inspired by the morning and one by the evening. Marshall Seyler, Northern European brand ambassador for Giffard liqueurs and syrups, added: “We at Giffard are always impressed with the recipes and concepts presented each year, and we’re looking forward to another year of creativity, drive and enthusiasm that the hospitality industry embodies. “The theme for this year, two cocktails to present, will bring us twice the fun. Get involved.”
