Although the concepts of mindful drinking and sober curiosity are not new, there is now greater global acceptance for travelers, with an increasing number of hotels providing mocktail options and services. Likewise, there is a growing recognition for brands that have long championed inclusivity, staying ahead of the curve in promoting these values.
Celebrating 200 years in 2024, The Shelbourne has long been referred to as “Ireland’s living room,” playing a major role in Dublin’s cultural and societal history. A gathering place for locals and guests alike, The Shelbourne’s central onsite cocktail bar, No. 27, is always buzzing, serving creative and classic cocktails and offering amazing views of St. Stephen’s Green. The Shelbourne was one of the first hotels in Dublin to introduce non-alcoholic cocktails, and they are continuing to lead the charge with a fresh N/A menu for 2024.
With N/A takes on classic drinks like the Old Fashioned, and unique new creations using flavors of grapefruit, tomato and honey, green apple and pistachio, and more, this zero-proof menu sparkles with style and sophisticated fun!
