booze-free sippers for summer ☀️


easy, elegant entertaining


Hey, Reader!

Mocktails aren't what they used to be. With depth of flavor that you'd find in any craft cocktail, these drinks are perfect for quenching your thirst on a hot summer day or serving to guests at any gathering.

These alcohol-free cocktails are a step up simply serving sparkling water or soda and the perfect way to ensure everyone has something to enjoy for any occasion.

Zero-proof spirits are a great way to add extra flavor that you typically get from booze. Make these drinks ultra refreshing by adding fresh flavors like fruits, berries, herbs and even veggies. Don't forget to garnish your mocktails like you would a cocktail for extra flair!

blackberry basil mocktail

Summer flavors shine in this sipper that stars berries and herbs. Its both savory and sweet to hit all the right notes. Make one when you need to cool down or bring vibrant color to your summer gatherings.

cucumber mocktail

I know that cucumbers aren't necessarily at the top of your list when it comes to crafting drinks, but trust me on this. Cucumber syrup gives this mocktail a delicate sweetness that pairs perfectly with citrus and soda.

sunrise mocktail

This fun drink is full of color, just like its alcoholic counterpart, but has enough flavor that you won't even miss the booze! You can even make your own grenadine at home to create the sunrise effect.

Zesty, bright and refreshing, this bubbly bevvy is full of flavor! This mocktail is sure to impress your guests and is easy to customize to fit any taste.

pink drink

This coffeeshop copycat recipe is definitely worth making at home! Berries, juice and coconut milk create a tasty sweet drink that's perfect for enjoying all day.

I'm sure one of these recipes will bring summer fun to any occasion! If you need any more inspiration for alcohol-free drinks to enjoy all season, here are even more favorites.

Cheers!
