Must-Have Apps for Refreshing Mocktails for Non-Drinkers

If you have recently decided to have a dry July, or have never been much of a drinker, meeting friends at a bar can be difficult. Sometimes your friends can tease you a bit about the second glass of water ordered, or you just want something tasty minus the booze. You should download an app that helps you find the best non-alcoholic drinks to order at a bar. There are some great recipes out there that don’t make you feel like you’re missing out. Try ordering a non-alcoholic Paloma, without the tequila, the Paloma would be a refreshing mocktail of grapefruit, lime, and soda water. You can order so many tasty cocktails, omit the liquor, and no one would be the wiser and you would have a good looking drink in your hand. All bartenders would know how to make a non-alcoholic Pina Colada or a non-alcoholic Margarita. So look on apps and get creative next time you meet for Friday drinks. 

Mocktails are indeed non-alcoholic, so that makes them kid-friendly, but you may not want to give your kids a cocktail style mocktail. Try finding recipes online that are easy mocktails for kids like a lavender tea lemonade or the popular Shirley Temple, made with grenadine, soda, and a cherry on top. You can also research non-alcoholic drink recipes with sprite, these kinds of mocktails could easily be turned into a punch for a birthday or weekend BBQ. Have delicious drinks by making healthy non-alcoholic drinks with fresh juices. Find a mango punch recipe that would be perfect for a warm summer day or even great to pair with spicy Thai food. The sweetness of the mango punch would go great with a little spice from the chilies. 

There are also occasions like baby showers, birthdays, and weddings that don’t always require (or it’s not really appropriate) to have alcohol. But that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some creative mocktails if you research recipes on your phone. Have hours of fun coming up with some baby shower drinks for your friend’s upcoming party. You can find recipes that would look picture-worthy like non-alcoholic bellini. Put the concoction in a champagne glass with a cute garnish and the ladies will love the peachy pink drink, perfect for an “it’s a girl” baby shower. Or you can find a peach punch mocktail that would look great on the buffet table and allow the guests to enjoy as much as they like. At weddings, it’s always nice for the bar to have at least one creative wedding mocktail. You could find a virgin cucumber mojito recipe that would keep the guests refreshed and the drink stylish with a mint sprig garnish.
