Whiskey Ginger

Smoke first. Free AF sets smoky oak against a zesty ginger kick, and the result is warming and crisp with a clean, dry finish, which is harder to pull off than it sounds in a category that usually swaps whiskey character for sugar. It is easily the most wintery can in the range. About 50 calories, sweetened with organic sugar rather than artificial sweeteners, and carrying Afterglow, the plant-based New Zealand ingredient the brand uses to deliver warmth without alcohol. On a drink built around warmth in the first place, that pairing makes more sense than usual. Serve it over ice in a rocks glass with a wedge of lime. It suits cold weather and barbecue equally, and it is one of the few non-alcoholic cans that works after dinner.
