S 3568 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Permits the sale of tonic water, bitters, maraschino cherries and dealcoholized wine at liquor stores

This bill amends New York's alcoholic beverage control law to allow liquor stores to sell specific non-alcoholic items, including tonic water, bitters, maraschino cherries, and dealcoholized wine. By adding these products to a list of exceptions, the legislation clarifies that selling them does not violate rules prohibiting liquor retailers from engaging in unrelated businesses. The change directly affects licensed liquor wholesalers and retailers by expanding the range of goods they can legally offer alongside alcoholic beverages.
