9 mocktails so good you’ll forget about booze
Don’t be fooled by the name: mocktails are no longer something to be mocked.
More and more people are looking for alternatives to alcohol and a well-crafted mocktail is a surefire way to scratch the itch, whether you’re cutting back, cutting out or simply need a night off the booze.
To keep you from feeling like a kid at the adults’ table, we’ve put together a few of our favorite mocktail recipes – virgin takes on classic cocktails and a few of our own creations – calling for fresh, whole ingredients while avoiding added sugars. They’re a little fancy, sure, but they’re also healthy, so feel free to drink irresponsibly.
