I'm doing my best to stop drinking, but my local only has Heineken 0 available. What else do you lot drink that I can reliably get in the pub, which isn't full of caffeine or sugar?

Water is about all I can think of but I'm wondering if there is something I can ask for that I'm overlooking. I'm hoping this will be like when I learned about pesto; I couldn't believe I had gone so long before eating it.

Isn't cider non alcoholic?

In the UK, most cider is alcoholic

Well, all of it that’s not a non-alcoholic variant.

Now let's not start calling others names.

No? It's fermented fruit

Americans (and maybe other English-speaking countries, I don't know) call some common kinds of non-fermented apple juice "cider". To get the alcoholic one that the UK calls cider, you need to ask for "hard cider"
