So why not shake and stir our deliciously fruity mocktail concoctions with our ‘Top 5 Non-alcoholic Drinks Guide’. They make the perfect start to any BBQ, there’s no need for alcohol and they’re packed full of healthy, wholesome fruit too!

With the rise of people giving up the punch, mixologists have had the challenge of splashing the same amount of sparkle into a mocktail without having to add alcohol, and consequently have created some of the most mouth-watering blends of sugar and spice we’ve tasted in a long time. So while the kids are playing in the garden, why not try some of the following refreshing summer thirst-quenchers…

 

Non-Alcoholic Sangria

Amongst the varied Sangria recipes out there, this non-alcoholic version is perfect for adults, and also provides a healthy fruity alternative for the kids. Planning a summer BBQ or family gathering? This non-alcoholic Sangria is brimming with pomegranate, orange, lemon, lime, and apple and is a revitalising option to sip on a warm day. Topped with cinnamon and sugar, the added sweet and spice elements create the perfect ‘party on the tongue’ moment.
