QUICK & EASY MOCKTAIL RECIPES

Mock Mojitos

Use a base of lemonade and soda water (mix according to your own personal taste). Add lots of ice, slices of lime (or lemons – but limes are better) and a generous helping of fresh mint.

Apple Cranberry Coolers

Mix together 100% cranberry juice with Appletizer. Pour over crushed ice.

Virgin Bellinis

Peach juice, soda water and lemonade (or Sprite) will make a great bellini alternative. Mix one part peach, two parts soda water and two parts lemonade.

Watermelon Spritzers

Freeze slices of watermelon in the freezer overnight. Blend frozen watermelon slices in the blender and blend until smooth. Add a blend of lemonade and soda water. Decorate with a sprig of mint or a slice of lime.

Pineapple, Lemon & Lavender Cooler

Mix together pineapple juice, lemon juice and soda water to your taste. Serve in a tall glass over ice and decorate with lemon slices and lavender blossoms.

Quick Fruit Punch

3 parts fruit juice (a combination of different ones works best) added to 1 part ginger ale and 1 part soda water makes a tasty and refreshing punch. Pour over a tall glass of ice and garnish with a piece of pineapple. For a little extra cuteness you could consider using a heart or star-shaped cookie cutter to cut shapes out of the pineapple. That would also work with slices of watermelon or spanspek.

Strawberry Limeade

3 cups of lime juice, 1 cup of lemon juice (both fresh) plus 2 cups of castor sugar added to 3 litres of water makes a great lemonade alternative. Add 1 cup of pureed strawberries for a little extra colour and garnish with lime slices.
