Ready-to-Drink Tequila Alternatives

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Esmeralda is a Non-Alcoholic Beer with "Tequila"

— May 3, 2021 — Lifestyle
Mockingbird Spirit is diversifying the non-alcoholic tequila alternatives on the market with a new ready-to-drink option that's fit for the summer. Esmerelda takes the form of a non-alcoholic beer that's infused with the familiar taste of tequila and just 0.5% ABV.

The product is vegan and gluten-free and it's a light alternative to many of the usual ready-to-drink summer mocktails that people are familiar with. The non-alcoholic spirit is made with Blue Weber Agave sourced from Mexico, plus a balance of notes from sweet vanilla and cinnamon and spicy habanero. There's also adaptogenic ashwagandha in the golden formula for Esmerelda by Mockingbird Spirit, which means that the product is also packed with functional benefits from the revered medicinal herb.
