Hey, Reader!
When it comes to holiday flavors, there are only a few that can span the entire season, from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day. One that can — or should I say, cran? Cranberries!
These dark red beauties pack a punch of sweetness and tartness that pair with turkey just as well as they do with cookies. Since they lend a bold taste, they're especially perfect for mocktails. You'll have plenty of flavors to focus on, so you won't even miss the booze!
cranberry lime mocktail
The tartness of the cranberries with the tart flavor of lime makes for a bright and flavorful mocktail. It’s a non-alcoholic drink that everyone will enjoy!
sparkling holiday mocktail
This cranberry fall mocktail embraces all the flavors of the season. The tartness of the cranberries combines with the sweetness and spiced warmth of apple cider to make the coziest and most flavorful drink.
cranberry orange mocktail
Sweet citrus and gentle ginger spice balance the tart cranberry juice in this bubbly beverage. Since there is no booze, the depth of flavor comes from the different juices and ginger beer.
virgin yule mule
The virgin yule mule mocktail is the ultimate non-alcoholic sipper for the holiday season. Bedazzled with cranberries and festooned with an array of fresh rosemary, this popular sweet cranberry version of the classic Moscow mule can be made with or without a zero-proof spirit.
virgin sangria
Cranberry juice is just one of the juices lending its flavor to this big batch mocktail. Using multiple different kinds of juice gives the final drink more depth and gets it closer to tasting like a tradtitional sangria.
Really want to wow this season? Sugared cranberries pack a visual punch and can also add to everyone's enjoyment of the season.
Cheers!
