\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All of these mocktail recipes<\/a> take just a few minutes to whip up, giving you a delicious drink super fast. They are also all very easy to make with simple steps and directions. You don\u2019t have to be a master mixologist to make a perfect drink!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>What is a Mocktail?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A mocktail is a non alcoholic drink<\/a> that is made to look and taste like a classic cocktail. Mocktails are made with juices<\/a>, sodas, herbs, syrups and fruits just like a cocktail. The only difference between a mocktail and a cocktail is the alcohol!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The word mocktail is a combination of the word \u201cmock\u201d, which means fake, and cocktail. So, a mocktail is a fake cocktail!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though mocktails have no alcohol, they are just as delicious, if not more so, than a cocktail. They are perfect for every event, every season and every day. We just love mocktails\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Best Easy Mocktails<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We have tons and tons of mocktail<\/a> recipes but these are the simplest and easiest to make. Don\u2019t worry, though, they are still super tasty!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
  1. Virgin Mint Julep<\/strong><\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The mint julep is a classic mocktail that is super easy to make. All you need to do is muddle fresh mint leaves inside a glass. This just means breaking the mint leaves a little bit to get their juices flowing. It\u2019s quite easy to do and looks impressive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Next, add all of the remaining ingredients to the glass, stir a little, and you\u2019re done! The hardest part of this recipe is the measuring! The end result is a rich, bright drink that is perfect for the summer or early fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n
    1. Cranberry Orange Mocktail<\/strong><\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Looking for a refreshing summery mocktail<\/a>? You can make this cranberry orange mocktail in just 5 minutes, giving you a bright, delicious drink super fast. You really only need three ingredients to make this mocktail: orange juice, cranberry juice and sprite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Our cranberry orange mocktail does have a fancy sugared rim. We love this extra touch which makes the drink really \u201cmocktail-y\u201d. However, you can completely skip the sugared rim and save some time and effort. The drink will still be fantastic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n
      1. Easy Strawberry Daiquiri<\/strong><\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Ice is added to two large copper mugs then the ginger beer, lime juice, sparkling water and pineapple juice is poured over the ice. Add a mint sprig if you want to be fancy! And don\u2019t worry, ginger beer has no alcohol at all. It is actually quite a healthy, natural drink. You will love it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n\n\n\n

            1. Mojito Mocktail<\/strong><\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              Mojitos are super vibrant and bold. They are made with fresh mint and fresh lime juice then sweetened with a little sugar and topped with club soda. The whole mix can be made in one glass which means less clean up and no special tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Use fresh spearmint or peppermint to make this drink. Both will make unique tasting drinks that are loaded with flavor. Use lime seltzer to add even more flavor. Simple switches make for incredible drinks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n\n\n\n
              1. Non Alcoholic Negroni<\/strong><\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                Negronis are usually made with a whole bunch of alcohol. So how do we make this drink into a mocktail? We use non alcoholic liquors of course!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Three different non alcoholic liquors are mixed together to make our virgin negroni recipe. Non alcoholic gin, Italian orange liqueur and a dry, alcohol free red wine are mixed together and poured over ice. That is all you need to do!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Look for non alcoholic liquors in your local liquor store or just order them online. Grab a bottle of each and you can make negronis all summer long!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n\n\n\n
