Now you might be wondering what\u2019s up with all these mocktails? Well, a couple years ago we received several requests from people who love sparkling beverages but for whatever reason weren\u2019t drinking. So we were asked to create bubbly mocktails. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the entire story can be found here<\/a><\/strong> where I introduce you to one of my bubblyologists. Sadly, now my bubblyologists live 2,000 miles away since we relocated to the Northwest, but because we knew that was going to happen, we made lots of mocktail recipes just for you to have in time for the holidays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So here they are. The newest 9 mocktails, all holiday drinks that are non-alcoholic but are still delicious and bubbly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thinking about holiday drinks and key ingredients we needed, we created a grocery list and went on a mission. Some key things we always use are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n And if you\u2019ve been around a while, you know it\u2019s all trial and error for us! When you have two teenage boys mixing up drinks with no preconceived notions, you are sometimes very surprised at the ingredients and how the drinks turn out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the perfect holiday cider that requires no work! You can certainly make your own apple cider (and we have the most delicious recipe for that too) or you can buy store bought which would make this even easier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The perfect holiday drink for anyone who\u2019s not drinking alcohol on Thanksgiving. And you can make it by the glass or in a big punch bowl or pitcher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One of our favorite things to do is to create a mocktail base and then have two different pathways to create a bubbly drink. So, we\u2019d have a non-alcoholic sparkling topper and an alcoholic addition topped with sparkling wine to make it a bubbly cocktail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n And for this holiday season, we have our Bubbly & Bright cocktail and mocktail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This mocktail is perfect for either Thanksgiving or Christmas by the glass or by the pitcher. In fact, here\u2019s what we love to do. We like to take the base of the mocktail (everything before the bubbly beverage is added) and then have the bubbly topper chilling in an ice bucket and the alcoholic ingredients in a different ice bucket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s how this would work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s a create your own drink bar. Perfect so that you don\u2019t have to keep creating mocktails and cocktails and you truly have a drink that everyone can enjoy, mocktail or cocktail style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Want more? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, we have all of our mocktail recipes in several locations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can easily organize them if you follow us on Pinterest<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can save and like them if you follow us on Instagram<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\nHoliday Drinks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
