A new alcohol free Triple Sec produced by Giffard is being brought to the UK by Mangrove Global, the UK’s leading premium spirits distributor and part of the SPIRIBAM Group. A significant new addition to Giffard’s Alcohol Free range, Triple Sec addresses one of the most persistent gaps behind the bar: a premium, no-alcohol option for the world’s most-ordered classic cocktails.
Joel Defries, Marketing Director, Mangrove Global said:
Right now, the margarita is the drink of the moment and everybody needs a triple sec to make it work. The demand for no/low alternatives is only growing and Giffard are leading the way with the alcohol-free version. Anyone at London’s BCB will tell you, our Margaritas paired with Almave were flying out! This is the real deal and it will become an absolute staple in every serious bar programme.
Using the traditional shrub technique, bitter and sweet orange peels are macerated in high-quality French wine vinegar, producing a liquid with an intense citrus bouquet and a perfectly balanced, smooth finish. All the complexity of the classic liqueur, with zero ABV.
Triple Sec joins the existing Giffard Alcohol Free range distributed by Mangrove in the UK, which already includes Grapefruit, Pineapple, Elderflower, Ginger and Spritz expressions, giving bartenders a comprehensive no & low toolkit to reimagine the classic cocktail canon without compromise.
The launch of Giffard Triple Sec Alcohol Free is particularly timely for the hospitality community, arriving just as Mangrove and Giffard open entries for the 2026 Giffard West Cup cocktail competition.
This year’s theme, ‘Sip the Moments’, challenges bartenders to create two connected drinks: one inspired by a morning occasion, one by an evening moment. Each pair must tell a coherent narrative through liquid, capturing distinct moods, contexts and times of day. Giffard Triple Sec Alcohol Free offers competitors a compelling new creative ingredient: a premium, zero-ABV citrus layer that can anchor an alcohol-free Margarita-style serve, add complexity to a low-ABV creation, or play a supporting role in an entirely original concept.
Bartenders are just in time to enter the competition which closes on Sun 17 May. Heats will be held in three cities across the UK, with winners advancing to the UK Final for the chance to represent the country at Giffard’s international final in Angers, France, where the ultimate winner receives an all-inclusive journey to a South American coffee terroir for an immersive bean-to-glass experience.
Marshall Seyler, Northern European Brand Ambassador, Giffard Liqueurs & Syrups
We at Giffard are always impressed with the recipes and concepts presented each year and we’re looking forward to another year of creativity, drive and enthusiasm that the hospitality industry embodies. The theme for this year, two cocktails to present, will bring us twice the fun. Get involved!
The combination of Giffard Triple Sec Alcohol Free and Almave Blanco, Mangrove’s acclaimed agave-based non-alcoholic spirit, makes for what we believe is the finest alcohol-free Margarita available right now. Both products are built on genuine craft credentials and real flavour extraction and together they deliver exactly what the classic should: bright citrus, agave character and a clean, zesty finish.
