St. Patrick’s Day Mocktail Recipe

St. Patrick’s Day is one of those fun bonus holidays where really anything goes. But the beverages do NOT have to be just Guinness and Bailey’s.  Kids (and adults) would love to wake up to a festive green drink on St. Patrick’s Day.

“Mocktails” are the perfect solution because then everyone can enjoy them at any time of day.

If you’re planning a family friendly St Patrick’s Day party, it’s always fun to have a themed beverage to go along with the menu. This St. Patrick’s Day “mocktail” is just the thing. It tastes light and refreshing, with just the right amount of zing. The secret ingredient is frozen limeade concentrate. Just adding a small amount (as little as a teaspoon per serving) gives a flavor punch to ordinary lemon lime soda. Make it festive with a lime candy garnish and a tiny drop of green food coloring.

Slainte!

    Has anybody ever made this as a large batch; like to serve in a punch bowl? I’m wondering what the ratio of soda to frozen concentrate would be. I will be serving about 70 people. Any help is much appreciated!

      This recipe makes approximately 10 servings, so I would just multiply everything by 7 🙂

    I spotted this at Diana’s patry and had to run right over! After a crazy day with 3 grandkids I mistakenly thought it might contain alcohol – even though it did say “MOCKtail”! Anyways, wow! This looks so cool and refreshing! Have the frozen stuff on my shopping list – thanks!
