Good non-alcoholic beverages?

Ken&AnnaKen&Anna member
in October 2012 Moms

Does anyone have ideas for good non-alcoholic beverages to drink when going out?

My personal favorite so far is soda & cranberry juice with a little lime juice.  Still feels special without being alcoholic or caffeinated. 

Other ideas? Feel free to post/share some good recipes!

    Last time around I would drink Shirley Temples when we went out.  And when we went to Mexico I enjoyed an NA beer here and there and Virgin Pi?a Coladas.

    We'll see what floats my boat this time.

    I've been making myself mocktails at home by mixing OJ with Ginger Ale. I don't know why it's so delicious but it is! I put it in small glasses and garnish every once in a while for some flare. Smile

    Last week I had sprite zero, club soda and lime juice. Not too bad....

     If you like wine, the N/A wine really isn't that bad.

    I love a good mocktail, I actually don't drink even when I am not pregnant so anytime I go out with friends it is a mocktail  These are a few of my favs:  PM me if you want more Big Smile

    Baby Bellini: 2 oz peach nectar & sparkling cider

    Cinderella: 1 oz lemon juice, 1 oz pineapple juice, 2 oz gingerale. dash of grenadine 

    Ginger Mint Julep: 1tbsp creme de menthe syrup, 1/2 c. ginger ale, fresh mint and cracked ice

    Mock Mai Tai: 1/2 c. cranberry juice, 1/2 c. pineapple juice, 1 tbsp lime juice

    And you never go wrong with a Shirley Temple or Virgin Mary, enjoy!!

    Hold on...they make n/a wine?  You're not talking about grape spritzer's are you?  Where do you buy n/a wine?

    When pregnant with DD I would sometimes order virgin daiquiris, very refreshing!

    I like pouring POM juice in a wine glass. It's bitter enough by itself that I sip it like wine.

    Honestly anything put in a wine glass or martini glass (the sexiest of all alcoholic beverage glasses, in my opinion) makes me forget that I neglected to consult my nonpregnant self about this whole not drinking thing before going off the pill. *Sigh*
