Various types of Mocktails

I’ve put together this list of mocktails, non-alcoholic mixed drinks and traditional cocktails that taste just as good with or without the alcohol. This list also helps hosts and hostesses provide their non-drinking guests with beverages that look and taste just as fun as alcohol-based cocktails. And if this list isn’t enough for you, maybe you need a book full of 100 zero proof cocktails.


Cuddles on the Beach.
Three alternative recipes for a non-alcoholic version of a mocktail
Cuddles on the Beach is a mocktail version of  cuddled on the beach with three variations for you to try. This is a really delicious fruit juice drink that looks like a real cocktail and tastes just as great.

Mockmosa
 A surprising alternative to the Mimosa, due to using sparkling white grape juice instead of sparkling apple cider.
The Mockmosa is a delicious alcohol-free version of the traditional Mimosa. You can serve it alongside Mimosas, or it can be your tipple when you want to socialize with drinkers but not drink yourself.

Nojito
 A Mojito with all the flavor, but none of the rum.
The Nojito is a mocktail (non-alcoholic) version of the Mojito, which is just as tasty as the original. All that refreshing mint and lime flavor remains, you just lose the alcohol. It makes a great alternative for non-drinking guests.


Hurricane Mocktail.
 This fruity cocktail tastes like the original Hurricane.Hurricane Mocktail recipe: V-8 Tropical Blend, orange & grapefruit juice, amaretto syrup

Virgin Mary.
 Basically a Bloody Mary without the vodka, but with a really flavorful, savory recipe for the tomato base.
Virgin Mary (Non-Alcoholic) drink recipe: tomato juice, beef stock, lemon, Tobasco, celery salt, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper

Bella Bellini.
 The Bellini, but with sparkling white grape juice instead of champagne, and a couple of other tweaks.
The Bella Bellini is a non-alcoholic mocktail take on the Bellini, which blends prosecco with peach puree. The trick to this one was to find a replacement for the prosecco that still tasted like champagne

Here are some........


- Barbina :- Thin strands often coiled into nests
