Are Mocktails Alcoholic?
Nope! Mocktails is just a short way of saying “fake cocktails”.
That means, they are similar to cocktails, but include ZERO alcohol – making them perfect for kids and anyone who is avoiding alcohol.
Can Mocktails make you drunk?
Nope. Not even a smidgeon, since they contain zero alcohol!
They can be pretty sugar-heavy, though, so you might get a bit of excess energy if you drink too much of them.
How to make mocktails with soft drinks?
Using a lemon lime soda like Sprite or 7Up is a great base for a bubbly alcohol free beverage. It has a tangy bite that you may miss in a non-alcoholic drink otherwise.
Top the bubbly soda with any fruity flavor to get a delicious mocktail recipe for kids.
