With the return of long lunches, beach picnics and sunset spritzes, there’s a new way to keep your glass full without the guilt.

Aussie favourite Bickford’s has launched its No Added Sugar Cordial range — a lighter, smarter take on the Aussie classic that’s made for summer sipping.

Forget syrupy mixers. These cordials are made with real fruit juice, no added sugar, and no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners.

Each serve clocks in at just eight calories or less, making it a fresh alternative for anyone looking to cut back on sugar or skip the booze without missing out on flavour.

Available nationally at Woolworths, the five-strong line-up - Lemon, Lime, Tropical, Raspberry, and Lemon Lime & Bitters - is vegan-friendly, Australian-made and built for experimentation.

Think sparkling spritzes, mocktails or punch bowls that still taste like summer holidays, just without the sugar crash.

To celebrate, Bickford’s has created a trio of refreshing recipes perfect for your next garden party or beach esky.

Two glasses of kiwi cocktails with sliced and star-shaped kiwi garnish. Sunlit, on a marble coaster, with a bowl and yellow background.

Kiwi Ginger Nojito

A zesty twist on the classic mojito — fresh kiwi fruit, mint and Bickford’s Lime cordial, topped with ginger ale and soda water. Add a splash of apple cider vinegar for extra tang, and garnish with kiwi slices and mint for a vibrant summer serve.

Two tall glasses of vibrant red berry drinks with lemon slices and blackberries on top, set on a table with a sunny yellow tile background.

Salted Raspberry Mocktail

Muddle raspberries and blackberries with Bickford’s Raspberry cordial, a squeeze of lemon juice and ice. Top with soda water or ginger kombucha and garnish with fresh berries for a grown-up take on nostalgic sweetness.

A glass of lemonade with ice, lemon slices, mint, and a small flower on a striped cloth. A bottle labeled "Lemon Juice" in the background.

Ginger Citrus Spritz

Shake grated ginger, Bickford’s Lemon cordial, mint and coconut water with ice, then strain into a glass and top with ginger kombucha. Finish with lemon, mint or edible flowers — it’s refreshing, aromatic and perfect for alfresco dining.
