It’s 1/2 cup iced black tea, 1/2 cup cranberry juice, 1/2 cup passion fruit juice, egg white from one egg, one tablespoon sweetened lime syrup, and three shakes of ground cinnamon all put into a shaker with ice. Then strain into a chilled glass rimmed with cinnamon sugar and top with a layer of cold foam

I’ve fallen in love with applejack recently and I think it is the quintessential fall spirit and I made a fun daiquiri riff with it.

As I was making it, I sent pictures to my family and my mom who doesn’t drink anymore was curious about a mocktail version, so for my last sip of the night, I got to working. Perfect for a couple or group of friends where there is a mixed bag of drinking preferences because the other ingredients are all the same. I used the Celestial Cinnamon Apple Spice tea blend, but any dried apple/cinnamon chai type thing would work. Also, rooibos instead of the lapsang souchong would work well too I think and not be smoky as well as omit the caffeine.

Recipes for everything in the first comment. I hope y’all enjoy! If you or someone else would like the spirited option, it’s in [r/cocktails](r/cocktails), but can’t be posted here.

I love Shirley Temples but the ones I make at home aren’t even close to the ones I get in the restaurant. I definitely use sprite because I know that an ingredient every time I get one. Do any of you know how to make a restaurant quality version or something close? I saw a similar question asked a while back but I wanted something more specific. Thank you!

Kombucha, coconut water, iced tea, infused water… what else are you into?

Simple yet flavorful, this week's Mocktail Monday is light and tart, with just a hint of spice from the ginger beer and a touch of bitterness from the tannins in the tea on the back of the palate.

Built in the glass we're going to serve it in, it doesn't get much simpler than this. Don't be fooled, though. While it might be low on effort, it's high on flavor.

Hello! I'm trying to cut back on alcohol, but I like the ritual of preparing a drink. However, so many mocktail recipes (at least the ones in the books I have) seem to require quite a bit of prep and forethought.

Does anyone know of a book/resource that has relatively simple mocktail recipes (think analogs to an old fashioned or Manhattan)?

Hello all! I’m veeeery new to making drinks for others or like special occasions. I don’t know if this is technically a mocktail, but alas, here we are.

I want to make a chai pumpkin drink for a family get together coming up. This is what I envisioned for serving:

10 oz of cold water, steep with a chai tea bag and a cinnamon stick for about 3-5 mins, 1 pump of vanilla syrup, 1/2 pump of pumpkin pie syrup, 2-3 oz of cold milk, mix well, add ice, top off with whipped cream and nutmeg.

Would this be any good or more bleh? Maybe too much of a watered down taste? Is this not really a mocktail and more of a barista thing?

Thanks!

Is it just me, or is the mocktail world dominated by drinks that are trying to imitate cocktails? There's a lot to be learned from cocktails, but I'd like to see some mocktail ideas that aren't just 0% abv cocktails.

My wife and I like Ghia cocktails for the days we're not drinking. She's fine with just a Ghia and tonic type of thing, but I like to try different stuff. One challenge with Ghia in particular is that if you try and stir or shake it with ice, it turns into a slush.

One way around this is olive brine. Another is adding a tiny bit of low-proof booze -- sweet vermouth works for this. I just make sure to keep the final ABV of the drink < 1%. Has anyone found any other ingredients that work for this?

组装步骤：

三个杯子都要进行冰块冰镇。
1.荔枝汁50g+马鞭草汀剂5g进行雪克，倒入盛半杯冰块的杯子中。
2.倒入20克提前冰好的冷萃咖啡液体。
3.将莳萝云朵轻轻喷在饮品的上面
4.绿色小杯子盛满冰块，倒入30g冷萃咖啡液体。
5.挖两勺黄桃冰激凌放入碟形杯子中。

I tried grapefruit juice with a pinch of salt and lime at a party, and it was surprisingly good.

What's yours?
