Are you getting tired of the same old soda? Maybe you're bored of drinking plain fruit juice? Do you need something that is a little more exciting, a little more refreshing and a whole lot more fun?

If the answer is yes, then you need a refreshing spritz mocktail.

What is a Spritz?

The spritz cocktail is originally from Northern Italy. It is a very customizable cocktail that is typically made with prosecco, a splash of fruit juice and some sparkling water or soda.

The combinations of fruit juices and sparkling wines is endless, especially when you start using alcohol free wines instead.

What is a Spritz Mocktail?

A spritz mocktail is simply a classic spritz cocktail made without alcohol. Our spritz mocktail uses non alcoholic sparkling rose. You get all the complex flavors of sparkling wine without any of the alcohol.

It is even tastier than the original spritz cocktail and the best part is that you can drink as many as you want! No alcohol means no side effects- just pure taste!

What is Non Alcoholic Wine?

You are probably wondering about non-alcoholic wine. We know, it does sound strange. Isn’t wine, by definition, alcohol? Yes and no.

Non alcoholic wine is made exactly like regular wine. Grapes are harvested and fermented, allowing the natural flavors and sugars to grow.

Once the wine is ready, it goes through a dealcoholization process where all the alcohol is removed. This leaves behind the delicious taste of wine without any of the alcohol.

Be sure to check your non alcoholic wine bottle label and be sure it is zero proof. Some NA wines do have small amounts of alcohol. While some people may be fine with this, others may want a completely alcohol free drink.

Read that label and be certain of what you are mixing!

Best Non Alcoholic Sparkling Rose

Our recipe uses non alcoholic sparkling rose to make a tasty, refreshing spritz mocktail. You want to be sure to choose a full flavored NA rose as this is the base flavor in your glass.

Here is a very quick look at our favorite alcohol free sparkling roses:

Tost- Tost has a dry, delicate taste that is full of citrus and fruit. The light fizz is delicious in our spritz mocktail.
Fre- A crisp and refreshing alcohol removed wine that has notes of strawberries and citrus.
Surely- Surely has an amazing, fruity taste with hints of guava, strawberry and kiwi. It is refreshingly acidic and perfectly balanced
Sovi- We love that Sovi comes in individually sized cans. You can crack one open for a perfect single serving any time! The berry flavor is great in our spritz recipe

Once you find a great bottle of sparkling rose, be sure to buy a few. Having them on hand is a fantastic idea!

You will want to make these spritz mocktails all the time!

Ingredients in a Spritz Mocktail

So you already know we use non alcoholic wine to make our tasty spritz drink. But what else goes into the glass? Here is what you will need:

Non Alcoholic Sparkling Rose- Be sure to choose a rose that is fruity, fizzy and has no alcohol at all! There are a lot of delicious options out there.
Sparkling Water- Plain sparkling water adds an extra, refreshing fizz to the glass.
Pomegranate Juice- A little pomegranate juice makes our spritz very fruity, sweet and tart. It also makes the drink a pretty pink color
Orange Juice- A little orange juice gives the spritz a bright, citrus taste. Use fresh squeezed juice if possible for the best flavor.

We like to garnish our spritz with an orange peel twist. It adds a bold color to the glass and is such an easy garnish to make.

Just use a very sharp knife to cut a strip of the orange peel, give it a little twist and you are ready to go!

How to Make a Spritz Drink

Our spritz mocktail is so super simple to put together. It takes mere minutes to make a perfect, bubbly, refreshing drink. Here is what you need to do:

Fill a tall glass with ice
Pour in the sparkling rose. Be sure to tip the glass towards the bottle to reduce the fizz

Some people like to give the spritz mocktail a quick stir after adding the ingredients to the glass. This will mix everything together nicely.

We like to leave the drink unstirred so that it has a pretty, ombre look. Stir or don’t stir, that choice is yours! The spritz drink will be delicious either way!
