What should I order in a pub if I do not drink alcohol?
Plenty, and nobody will blink. Zero alcohol stout and lager are stocked in most pubs now, with the alcohol free stout poured in the same two part way as the real thing, so you keep the ritual and lose only the alcohol. The older Irish soft drinks are worth trying once: red lemonade, Club Orange and Cidona, a sparkling apple drink. Tea and coffee are always available, and a pot of tea at the bar is a completely normal order. If you want to keep a round going, order your zero option in the same round as everyone else and the evening runs exactly as it should.
