With the holidays approaching, it can be tough not to partake in the alcohol treats. Fortunately mocktails, while not the same, can be fun! Share your recipes or favorite products here!
I got a few six packs of Kaliber beer last pregnancy. I like stronger tasting beers, and that was about as good as it got. That and sparkling water or sparkling grape juice with fresh fruit in it!
The bartender at my work party made me a club soda with a splash of cranberry and a lime, it was delicious and fancy enough that I didn't miss the real thing!
Tangent but related: how much do you trust virgin drinks? Like if I ask for a virgin pina colada or something I would be able to tell if there was any rum in there right? I would think so but now I am overthinking it.

Re: GTKY: Mocktails!
FRE is a non-alcoholic wine and O’douls is a pretty tasty non-alcoholic beer. Technically they both have miniscule amounts of alcohol.
