Yet all ways should be unapologetic and uncompromised
We embrace diverse drinking experiences. Our mission is to craft unique non-alcoholic spirits using exquisite ingredients, offering innovative and delicious choice alongside alcoholic beverages. Rather than imitating traditional spirits, we create immersive flavors that stand on their own.
We champion mindful consumption by providing an inclusive and sophisticated drinking experience for the discerning palate.
Connection isn’t poured, it’s created. We believe that true connection, meaningful conversation, and boundless creativity happen when you’re fully present. That’s why we’ve crafted VAN SHA, a non-alcoholic dark spirit designed to elevate every moment—whether you’re celebrating with friends, enjoying a quiet evening, or exploring new rituals.
We’re here for everyone: the non-drinker, the sober curious, the mindful flexitarian, and the adventurous experimenter. VAN SHA is for those who crave unapologetic, elevated experiences—bold flavors and exceptional quality, without compromise.
Sharan Bal, founder of VAN SHA Spirits and advocate for inclusive drinking, turned her pursuit of a sophisticated non-alcoholic beverage and passion for hospitality into a brand that redefines traditional drinking norms. As a South Asian entrepreneur and the first female founder in the non-alcoholic spirits sector in the Netherlands, Sharan blends over eight years of industry experience with her vision for an inclusive, elevated drinking experience.
VAN SHA represents Sharan’s place at the drinks table—a mindful yet indulgent choice for those seeking more than just an alternative. It embodies her dedication to bold flavors, craftsmanship, and authenticity.
Created in The Netherlands
While born and bred in The Netherlands, Sharan always had a strong connection with her family history and roots in Punjab, India. Exploring her farming heritage, specifically in her family’s grove, the diverse botanicals grown in lush green landscapes to aromatic, dried spices from spice markets – She eventually found the distinctive and rich ingredients she needed for a complex yet balanced non-alcoholic spirit.

“VAN SHA brings together my quest for an inclusive and sophistic drink experience, my own need of a delicious non-alcoholic spirit, my innovation experience in the industry and my passion for hospitality. The brand reflects my family’s roots, a celebration of my Indian heritage woven into the flavor profile. Inspired by the vibrant hues and bold flavors of my culinary roots, the spices and botanicals we use are not just aromatic and flavorful but also have a centuries old Ayurvedic principle of functionality”.
