Where to Buy Non-Alcoholic Wine in Gran Canaria
If you’re cutting back on alcohol or just curious about the booze-free life, you might be wondering where to find non-alcoholic wines in Gran Canaria. The good news? You’re not alone. The even better news? We’ve rounded up the local favourites, tips, and hidden gems so you can skip the guesswork and head straight for the good stuff.
🛍️ El Corte Inglés: A Scattered Goldmine
El Corte Inglés supermarket has one of the biggest selections on the island, including alcohol-free red and white wines, cava, prosecco, and even gin substitutes. The only catch? They’re scattered around the bodega section, so it’s a bit of a treasure hunt. Keep your eyes peeled and be ready to explore every shelf.
🥂 Tried and Tested: What’s Worth It?
Community pick: the Codorníu Zero Cava. It’s a little on the sweet side, but makes a great alternative for toasts, brunches, or sunny terrace moments. It’s also perfect for mixing into a 0.0% version of an Aperol Spritz — just grab some Bitter Kas or Bitter Kas Zero (available at Carrefour) and you’re sorted.
🍷 Wine Lovers, Manage Expectations
According to our community member Nikki, the non-alcoholic wines themselves aren’t exactly award-winning, but they do the job. They’re not awful, just not amazing either. The cava was a standout, and the Tanqueray 0.0% gin got top marks for smelling and tasting impressively close to the real thing — especially in cocktails.
🛒 Where Else to Look
- Carrefour: You’ll find Codorníu Zero here too, along with El Gaitero 0.0% cider and occasionally some 0.5% wines.
- Mercadona: A good spot for alcohol-free Tinto de Verano.
- Hiperdino and Alcampo: Hit or miss, but worth a quick browse if you’re nearby.
🍹 Bonus Tip: Make Your Own 0.0% Spritz
If you’re planning a mocktail night, grab your zero-alcohol cava and Bitter Kas from Carrefour and whip up a sunset spritz. It’s refreshing, colourful, and you won’t miss the hangover.
🥳 Final Sip
The selection in Gran Canaria might not rival the mainland just yet, but with a bit of exploring, you can definitely stock your fridge with some solid 0.0% options. Start at El Corte Inglés, experiment with cava-based mixes, and don’t sleep on the gin substitutes. Salud — sin alcohol!
