Best Mocktails in Dubai: Ten Menus That Put the Drink First

Choosing a mocktail in Dubai can mean anything from a glass built around non-alcoholic gin and yuzu tonic to a familiar fruit-and-soda cooler. The difference matters: some menus identify a 0% ABV base, others use the broader label “non-alcoholic,” and a few simply call the drink a mocktail. This guide keeps those labels intact and gives you the actual menu price, so you can choose by flavor and certainty as well as by setting.

The selection is editorial, not ranked. These are restaurant and bar menus with a named alcohol-free drink and a published price, checked on 7 October 2026. A “non-alcoholic” menu label does not by itself confirm a drink is 0.0% ABV; ask the venue about the exact product and preparation if that distinction is essential. Prices below are per drink unless stated otherwise. Where the venue publishes fees, they are noted; where it does not, the final bill treatment is unconfirmed.

When a real zero-proof menu matters

Mimi Kakushi’s June 2026 drinks menu makes one of the clearest distinctions in town: a “Kintarō 0% ABV-Cocktails” section sits beside a separate “Mocktails” list. Haka brings Lyre’s Italian bitter together with genmaicha, sage, elderflower and yuzu tonic for AED60. Yuaku layers Lyre’s Dry London with chamomile tea, peach, lemon and whey, also AED60; Genso goes in a darker, tart direction with coffee, yuzu, strawberry and matcha. If you would rather avoid spirit alternatives, the menu’s Yuki combines watermelon, peach, rooibos and black tea cordial for AED50. Menu prices include 10% service and 5% VAT, with 7% municipality fees added. It is a Japanese restaurant rather than an alcohol-free venue, but its drink list gives non-drinkers several considered routes beyond juice.

MINA Brasserie is especially clear about what it is selling: its current beverage list labels three signatures “0% ABV,” each AED55. Aurora uses non-alcoholic gin, star-anise cordial, pineapple, lemon and soda, so it has the familiar frame of a gin highball without claiming to be a gin-based alcoholic cocktail. Solstice takes a brighter, warmer turn with lychee, mango, vanilla and jalapeño; Velore brings rose white tea, rosemary, cranberry and egg white into a more perfumed sour. The menu says prices include 10% service and 5% VAT, and are subject to a 7% DIFC Authority fee. The brasserie is a Four Seasons restaurant in DIFC with bar bites available from 3pm, making this a practical after-work stop as well as a dinner order. If you have an egg allergy, note that Velore contains egg white.

LPM gives its non-alcoholic page a little theatre of its own: “Déjà Vu Sans Alcool.” Solaris is the sharpest pick for someone who wants a bitter, tonic-led drink, with Tanqueray 0.0%, grapefruit, cucumber and lemon for AED52. La Plage pairs mandarin and peach with the same 0.0% spirit, also AED52. St. Tropez Colada uses coconut, pineapple, non-alcoholic rosé and Lyre’s, again AED52. A simpler “Classiques Sans Alcool” section runs AED40–48; Vitamin Sea, the lowest at AED40, is grapefruit, salted agave, rosemary and hibiscus topped with sparkling water. The bar is open daily from noon to 1am. The menu does not state whether its prices include service, municipality fees or VAT, so allow for a final bill that may differ.

Fruit, spice and tea with a sense of place

At Amaseena, the alcohol-free list reads in a more regional register. Medina Magic combines pomegranate and watermelon with hibiscus, peach, lemon, mint and soda for AED45. The Ritz Spice is the more savoury, warming alternative: black tea, fever grass, black pepper, ginger, star anise and mint for AED50. Both fit the open-air, Middle Eastern restaurant at The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai, where the garden setting and evening service give the drinks a natural place at dinner. The operator-linked drinks PDF is dated January 2026; it lists prices inclusive of 10% service, 7% government fees and 5% VAT. The hotel’s current page says Amaseena reopened on 2 October 2026 and lists Tuesday–Sunday service from 6pm to 1am. Ask for the current drinks menu when booking, since the published PDF predates the reopening.

Buddha-Bar Dubai’s “Signatures Non-Alcoholic” section is more playful and Pan-Asian in flavor. Mei, AED55, mixes jasmine cold brew with lychee, yuzu and rose; it is the most tea-led choice. Blooming Paradise, also AED55, brings passion fruit, apple, basil, agave and soda into a brighter, herbal combination. The richer options cost AED60: Naked Nuri adds tamarind, guava, pineapple, passion fruit, banana and ginger beer, while Kenpinki pairs mango and agave with Lyre’s Italian Spritz and soya milk. The venue lists evening hours from 7pm, until 1am Sunday–Thursday and 2am Friday–Saturday. These are menu-category descriptions rather than an explicit ABV guarantee, and the operator does not say whether its prices include fees.

Hakkasan makes the menu language unusually useful: its “Non-Alcoholic” section says the drinks use non-alcoholic spirits, but only one of the three is explicitly marked 0% ABV. That is Juzi Spritz, AED70, with peach, orange juice and lemonade. Virgin Hakka costs AED60 and combines lychee, passion fruit and coconut cream; despite “Virgin” in its name, the menu does not separately state its ABV. Wild Bellini, AED85, is made with Wild Idol Rosé, peach and raspberry pearls. If 0.0% is a firm requirement, Juzi is the clearest order on the list; for the other two, confirm the base with the team. Hakkasan is a Cantonese restaurant and bar at Atlantis, The Palm, so it makes sense when the drink is part of a longer dinner rather than the sole reason to travel.

Aperitivo, a lower bill or a rooftop setting

The St. Regis Bar Downtown gives the zero-proof order a classic aperitivo outline. Its “Gentle Bar” menu costs AED50 per drink. Zerogroni combines Bax Botanics Sea Buckthorn, an aromatized 0.0% vermouth and Wilfred’s; Astor Berry & Tonic uses verbena, watermelon and lemongrass, while Light & Breezy pairs Crossip Dandy with citrus, velvet falernum and ginger ale. The price includes 7% municipality fees, 10% service charge and 5% VAT. The menu does not explicitly say every “Gentle Bar” drink is 0.0% ABV, so Zerogroni is the option with the clearest stated zero-proof component. This hotel bar is the pick for a slower, dressed-up early-evening drink.

Andiamo! at Grand Hyatt Dubai is the friendliest entry point on price. Its current menu lists four mocktails at AED40 each. Ananas Aromatico balances pineapple with thyme, rosemary, vanilla and ginger ale; Primavera combines passion fruit, lime, apple and butterfly pea; Felix Felicis goes for grapefruit cordial and basil. The Hangover is a salted orange-and-soda mix. The menu separately lists an optional vodka or rum addition at AED35 for The Hangover and Ananas Aromatico, so keep that add-on separate from the mocktail price if you want the alcohol-free version. Andiamo! is an Italian restaurant with an open kitchen and floral terrace; ask the team whether taxes and service are added, as the menu page does not spell that out.

Eve Penthouse & Lounge pairs the higher-floor lounge setting with four named AED55 mocktails. Hypnos combines rosemary, elderflower, lime, lychee, lemon and soda; Morpheus layers passion fruit, lemongrass, lime and ginger ale; Desire leans creamy, with coconut, pineapple, vanilla and cinnamon. The choice is broader than a single token option but remains a compact section inside a rooftop bar menu, rather than a dedicated zero-proof program. The venue page describes Eve as a 34th-floor lounge and sets a 21+ entry rule. It does not publish an ABV guarantee or fee breakdown for the drinks, so check both if relevant before booking.

L’Avenue’s signatures offer another route for guests who want a drink built around alcohol-free spirits. Douce Nuit uses non-alcoholic gin, chamomile, peach and lime for AED58; Royale Cassis is AED62 and pairs 0.0 Prosecco with cassis, while Negroni 0.0 is AED60. These menu labels are worth keeping distinct: the first is made with a non-alcoholic gin, the second identifies the sparkling wine as 0.0, and the third is called “0.0” by name. The menu does not publish its fee treatment, so confirm the final total when ordering. It is a useful choice for someone who wants a more recognisable cocktail shape with the alcohol-free base made explicit on the menu.

Which one fits your evening?

For a clearly marked 0% ABV menu section, start with MINA; Mimi Kakushi also separates its 0% ABV cocktails from its mocktails. Hakkasan’s Juzi Spritz is the clearest individually named 0% ABV serve. For tea and spice, try Mimi’s Haka or Amaseena’s Ritz Spice; for a sharper aperitivo profile, order LPM’s Solaris or The St. Regis Bar’s Zerogroni. If price leads, Andiamo!’s AED40 menu is the least expensive listed here, while LPM’s Vitamin Sea is AED40 for a simpler sparkling, herb-and-grapefruit drink. Buddha-Bar and Eve offer more atmosphere-led restaurant and lounge settings, with compact but distinctive alcohol-free sections.

The key distinction is between a named mocktail, a non-alcoholic menu category and an explicitly stated 0% ABV product. The menu price tells you what the drink itself costs; it does not always settle service, tax or preparation questions. For strict abstinence, confirm the exact bottle or spirit base with the venue before ordering. Menus and venue details were checked on 7 October 2026; Amaseena’s linked drinks PDF is dated January 2026 and should be reconfirmed after its October reopening.
