unspiked

Left completely untampered

Unspiked describes something that hasn't had a spike added—most often a drink that remains free of added alcohol or drugs: Make sure the punch stays unspiked for the kids.

It can also describe athletic shoes without cleats, or in journalism, a story that wasn't killed: The editor left the controversial piece unspiked.
