You need to install the tzdata package and then set the enviroment variable TZ to a timezone. (List with all the timezones)
FROM alpine:latest
RUN apk add --no-cache tzdata
ENV TZ=Europe/Copenhagen
Output
$ docker run --rm alpine date
Tue Aug 31 09:52:08 UTC 2021
$ docker run --rm myimage date
Tue Aug 31 11:52:13 CEST 2021
This is my Dockerfile and it's work:
FROM alpine:latest
# Essentials
RUN apk add -U tzdata
ENV TZ=America/Santiago
RUN cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Santiago /etc/localtime
you have to replace 'America/Santiago' to your timezone'
