Non alcoholic drink and blood pressure

I've looked on the net but not found anything. I like my wine, etc at night time. If I was to change to non alcohol drinks, does this impact the BP when drunk in moderation?
I'd be grateful for links and/or help from an expert if possible or advice that was given to a fM here by a doctor, etc.

I don't see why non-alcoholic drinks would impact blood pressure, most of them are variations on sparkling juice. I wouldn't expect them to have any more affect than a glass of lemonade or fruit juice.
I would be wary of caffeinated drinks, as I think the caffeine has an association, so would avoid cola for example.
If blood pressure is a concern have a look at the UK Blood pressure association website, lots of info on there about dietary/lifestyle changes that can improve it. I have found it very helpful in the past.0 -
Is your blood pressure high? Do you drink alcohol every evening? Cutting that down will definitely be good for your health if so.0
