大象传媒 London Journalist Jess Warren is two months into an alcohol-free year - and nothing has been hitting the spot. She's been searching for a replacement to a glass of wine and slowly facing up to the reality that there isn't a like-for-like swap.

Recently, she celebrated her partner's birthday, and cracked open a bottle of alcohol free rum for the occasion. She says she might as well not have bothered. It smelt amazing, all the spice that the real-deal promises, but it tasted like water.

So what alcohol-free alternatives are there, that don't leave you with a sense of dissatisfaction? Jess has been on the hunt.
