Magical Mocktails
You wont even miss the alcohol with these must-have mocktails
I have gotten very into making mocktails lately and I wanted to share some of my favorites!
What I love most about these non-alcoholic drinks is that they are refreshing and actually hydrating in a way that alcohol can’t be. And hydration is extra important during these hot summer nights. Having a fun, delicious, and pretty mocktail to drink in the evening always leaves me feeling my best in the morning. So, here you go! Let me know what you think.
All recipes yield 1 drink…double for 2 or make a pitcher for the whole party!
