What is the best zero-proof substitute for tequila?
The best zero-proof substitute for tequila is a 0.0% ABV tequila-inspired spirit you pour 1:1 — not a lime cordial. In Singapore that bottle is Miss Agave. Habanero supplies the spice kick; xanthan gum gives viscosity so the drink still has body. It is the driest serve in the range (0.6 g sugar / 30 ml).
Why Miss Agave reads as tequila
What is the best zero-proof substitute for tequila if you want a Paloma or a Tommy’s? You need non-alcoholic spirits that stand in for the agave pour, then soda or lime. Miss Agave uses habanero for the throat warmth ethanol would have given, and xanthan gum for weight on the palate — the “real drink” feel, not thin flavoured water.
That kick is spice, not proof. See how zero-proof drinks get their burn. A juice mocktail is a different drink: zero-proof versus mocktails.
Miss Agave mixes 1:1. Spec: how to mix zero-proof spirits.
