About Irene Falcone

Founder & Director of Sans Drinks

From the creator & founder of Nourished Life

I launched Sans Drinks in 2020 after being frustrated with the low quality, sugar loaded non-alcoholic alternatives that were available in supermarkets and bottle shops. Plus, for someone looking to cut back on alcohol, the last thing I’d expect anyone to do is to step inside a bottle-o where temptation lies on every shelf. And so, Australia’s first alcohol-free superstore was born!

But my journey to finding better, healthier product alternatives didn’t start here. Back in 2012, I founded Nourished Life to help change the way Aussies shop for beauty and wellness products. After selling Nourished Life in 2017, I wanted to keep creating positive change in people’s lives and the alcohol industry was a perfect place to channel my passions while disrupting traditional industries!

Fast forward a few years and San Drinks is now Australia’s first physical non-alcoholic bottle shop and online superstore in Sydney’s Westfield Warringah Mall. Seeing how pleased my customers are with my delicious non-alcoholic options has given me the confidence to open up more stores around Australia very soon!

Many Australians are reducing the amount of booze they drink after realising alcohol can have a lasting effect on our health and wellbeing which has caused people to seek healthier drink alternatives.

But when it comes to healthier alcohol alternatives, I’m a firm believer that alcohol-free drinks don’t just need to look the part, they need to taste great too! That’s why I launched Sans Bar and Ms Sans to offer a real non-alcoholic alternative to spirits that anyone can enjoy.

Creating my own low sugar and low calorie alcohol-free drinks has helped me cut out the middleman and offer my customers more natural beverages at better prices. I currently make some amazing alcohol-free spirits, mocktail blends and ready-to-drink drinks, but I’m already planning on shaking up some new products that I can’t wait to serve you soon.

The beauty of Sans Drinks is I’ve done all the research and hard work for you so you know whatever non-alcoholic drink you’re drinking is going to be delicious and as close to the real thing as possible. No more hunting for a decent non-alcoholic wine or the perfect mocktail. You’ve found your answer to healthier, more mindful drinking here!

“I’m passionate about disrupting industries and challenging the norm while providing better shopping experiences for the everyday Aussie.”

“Just like Nourished Life, my new mission has always been to give people better shopping choices.”
