The 6 Best Non-Alcoholic Vodkas in Canada (2027)

Non-Alcoholic Beverage Reviewer

Looking for the best non-alcoholic vodka? We carry six alcohol-free vodkas at Upside Drinks, and this guide ranks all of them using our own sales over the last 90 days, the nutrition labels and the ingredient lists: Dhos from Oregon, Smiling Wolf from the UK and four bottles from USKO.

Vodka is a strange spirit to copy, because regular vodka is mostly alcohol and water with very little flavour of its own. Without the alcohol, brands rebuild the bite and the texture with botanicals, which is why all six of these are at their best mixed.

How We Picked the Best Non-Alcoholic Vodka

  • Sales first: the order follows how many bottles our customers bought in the last 90 days.
  • Labels, not adjectives: alcohol, calories and sugar come from each bottle's label or our product data.
  • Taste in the brand's words: where we describe flavour, we say how the producer describes it.
  • In stock in Canada: every bottle ships from our Canadian warehouses.

1. Dhos Vodka Free

Dhos Vodka Free non-alcoholic vodka

Price: $39.99 / 750 mL / Buy Now / Read our full review

Our best-selling non-alcoholic vodka by a wide margin. It is made in Oregon and comes in a full 750 mL bottle.

The label lists 0 calories and 0 g of sugar per serving, sweetened with a little stevia. Dhos describes a nose of wild blueberry and green apple and a horseradish-driven finish, which is how it brings back the bite that alcohol usually gives a vodka.

Things We Like

  • Best seller.
  • 0 calories, 0 g sugar: per the label.
  • Biggest bottle: 750 mL.

2. Smiling Wolf Crystal Vodka

Smiling Wolf Crystal Vodka non-alcoholic vodka

Price: $59.99 / 700 mL / Buy Now

Our second best seller in the category, and the premium pick of the list. It comes from the UK and is made with botanical extracts and water.

The brand describes it as lightly grainy, with citrus and gentle pepper and a clean finish, which makes it the one to try in a simple vodka tonic or a Bloody Mary. It does list sugar in its ingredients, and we do not have its full nutrition panel yet.

Things We Like

  • Grainy, vodka-like profile: per the brand.
  • Citrus and pepper
  • Premium bottle: 700 mL.

3. USKO Original Vodka

USKO Original Vodka non-alcoholic vodka

Price: $39.99 / 700 mL / Buy Now

The pick if you want a true 0.0%. USKO is made in the UK from spring water, glycerine and seven botanical distillates, and is designed to mimic a single-grain vodka.

The label lists 5 calories and 2 g of sugar per 44 mL serving. The brand sums up the taste as cucumber and "notes of vodka", which fits a vodka soda or a Moscow Mule better than a neat pour.

Things We Like

  • 0.0% alcohol
  • 5 calories per serving: per the label.
  • Vegan and gluten-free: per the brand.

4. USKO Vanilla Vodka

USKO Vanilla Vodka non-alcoholic vodka

Price: $39.99 / 700 mL / Buy Now

The most popular of the flavoured USKO bottles with our customers. Same 0.0% base as the Original, with vanilla added.

Use it where a vanilla vodka would go: an espresso martini, a creamy dessert drink, or simply with cola. The label lists 5 calories and 2 g of sugar per 44 mL serving.

Things We Like

  • Vanilla, ready to mix
  • 0.0% alcohol
  • Great in an espresso martini

5. USKO Citrus Vodka

USKO Citrus Vodka non-alcoholic vodka

Price: $39.99 / 700 mL / Buy Now

Flavoured with Sicilian lemon, Tahitian lime and cucumber, according to the ingredient list. It is the easiest of the six to drink with just soda water and ice.

The label lists 10 calories and 2 g of sugar per 44 mL serving, so slightly more than the Original. It is also certified halal, vegan and gluten-free, per the brand.

Things We Like

  • Real citrus flavourings: lemon and lime.
  • 0.0% alcohol
  • Made for soda water

6. USKO Nordic Berries Vodka

USKO Nordic Berries Vodka non-alcoholic vodka

Price: $39.99 / 700 mL / Buy Now

The berry version of USKO, which the brand describes as tart forest berries. It is the newest of the six on our shelves and has not built a following yet, so try it if you already like the Original.

Mix it with tonic or a splash of cranberry for a pink drink without a syrup. The label lists 10 calories and 2 g of sugar per 44 mL serving.

Things We Like

  • Tart berry profile: per the brand.
  • 0.0% alcohol
  • Pretty in a glass

How to Use Non-Alcoholic Vodka

  • Vodka soda: 45 mL over ice with soda water and a lime wedge. USKO Citrus is the easy pick.
  • Moscow Mule: with ginger beer and lime, see our Virgin Moscow Mule.
  • Espresso martini: with fresh espresso and a coffee syrup, see our Virgin Espresso Martini. USKO Vanilla works well here.
  • Caesar or Bloody Mary: the peppery bottles (Dhos, Smiling Wolf) stand up to tomato and spice, see our Non-Alcoholic Bloody Caesar.
  • Cosmopolitan: with cranberry and lime, see our Pink Cosmopolitan Mocktail.

Dhos Vodka Free is our best seller by a wide margin. For a true 0.0%, USKO Original. For a premium vodka tonic, Smiling Wolf Crystal.

Is non-alcoholic vodka really alcohol-free?

Very few: Dhos lists 0, USKO Original and Vanilla list 5 and USKO Citrus and Nordic Berries list 10 per 44 mL serving.
