2nd Trimester

"Mocktail" recipes

Ok the post below has inspired me... with the holidays coming, anyone have any good recipes? Last year I sipped bud light lime mixed with OJ, the year before I was pregnant with DS and drank cranberry juice mixed with sprite....

 

I am CRAVING a big fruity drink right now!

  • bud light lime with OJ? is it just me or is that totally weird??? i don't drink beer, so i have no idea.

    you could do seltzer water with grapefruit juice and a sugar cube in a champagne flute (or 7 up, skip the sugar cube). i'll be doing faux mimosas over the holidays because i am craving and missing them most of all.

    I'll try anything once! I worked as a bartender, and this guy always ordered half miller lite, half diet coke. NOT delicious. Lol :)

    bartender here and I have never heard of beer and diet coke!  Yuck!  Bud light lime with OJ makes me think of a hop skip and go naked(High Life, vodka, and lemonade-gross IMO)

  • I buy alot of the non alcoholic drink mixes- margaritas, daquires, i even got mohitos and drink them- sometimes frozed, sometimes adding a bit of sprite.

  • My favorite mocktail at the moment is spiced apple cider with cream - shake it up on ice like a martini...it is delish!
  • My faves are:

    1) Half cranberry juice, half soda water, with a squeeze of lime;

    2) Half pomegranite juice, half sparkling water; and

    3) Virgin mojito (great to order at a bar - totally delicious!).

    Delicious and they look festive!

    I love that stuff.  Yeah I can drink that much myself.  Haven't had any since preg.  Might have to try it when I can feel the little bean better.

  • My favorite: Kissing on the Beach (cause it's virgin, get it? lol)

    3 oz Orange juice

    3 oz Cranberry juice

    1 oz peach nectar

    Club soda if you want fizz, maraschino cherry if you want it to taste a bit alcoholic.

     Yum yum!
