Yummy Mocktail

in July 2014 Moms
Hey Ladies! First thread - I hope it's not flame-worthy, BUT I had to share a yummy mocktail that a kind waitress in Chicago had made for me last week:

Ginger Ale (1/2 glass)
Cranberry juice (1/4 glass)
Lime juice (1/8-1/4 glass)
Ice

I just duplicated it with diet ginger ale and the lime juice that's in the plastic lime-shaped container.

SO GOOD, it just may get me through this pregnancy. Tastes like a margarita :)

    Looks delish!!! Love that you have it in a martini glass! I have been craving vodka tonics like it's no ones business lately! I'm gonna try this mocktail! :)

    YES @jensavicci‌ - stick a lime on the side, and it's Cosmo-like :) fizzy, but worthy of a sip.

    This plus vodka is one of my favorite non-pregnancy drinks. I have never even thought to make it like this! Thanks for sharing.

    I make myself something similar when I'm hanging out with my girls and they get to have cocktails. Instead of the cranberry juice I use a bit of orange and a splash of grenadine. Yummy :0)

    I'm going to flame this because I'm mad that I don't have all the ingredients. This post sucks!!!!! Worst post ever. OP you are no longer a part of this community! Okay but seriously I want. Now. And it's 9:11am.

    Ha! I know - I had texted my husband FROM CHICAGO about it, thinking that he'd buy all the ingredients while I was gone. When I got home and he hadn't, he got flamed BIG TIME. He'll never make that mistake again ;)

    Mmm sounds yummy! I just made something similar last night, but it tasted more like a Midori or Whiskey Sour.

    3/4 cup Simply Limeade
    1/4 cup Ginger Ale
    Shake with ice and voila!

    Will definitely be my summertime sippin' drink :)

    This weekend I made a fancy little drink for myself and it turned out pretty good!

    I took natural watermelon lemonade and blood orange juice and made ice cubes out of each. I added a bunch (of each) to a glass and poured that apple Izze soda over it - delish! We also grilled burgers last night and it made me wish summer was here! Cheers!

    That looks delicious! Mocktails are a must with spring/summer coming! Cranberry and pineapple juice has been my go to mocktail when I go out with friends. Also good with a little sprite mixed in.
