Mocktail recipes to try
4y·
By Ncumisa Lerato Kunana
Non-alcoholic drinks used to have a very blah reputation. A Shirley Temple, club soda with lime—boring and occasionally painfully childish. Fortunately, there is a boom in alcohol-free options right now that rival their alcoholic counterparts in fun, sophistication, and deliciousness.
A fun and revitalizing mocktail should always be included on the menu, whether it’s for you or your visitors. Here are simple, delectable non-alcoholic drinks to serve at your upcoming gathering.
Watermelon mint julep:
5-6 chunks of watermelon
1/2 lemon squeezed juice

add ice to a separate glass and strain drink over ice
garnish with watermelon and mint leaves
A good host or hostess shouldn’t overlook a place for a pitcher of non alcoholic drink. This will take care of all the teetotalers, kids and even pregnant woman and new mothers.
