Thanksgiving mocktails are the go to drink this harvest season! We have gathered our favorite non-alcoholic drinks for you all in one place. Whether you need a drink for your next Friendsgiving or a classic Thanksgiving dinner, we will show you how to make the perfect mocktail every time!

Thanksgiving Mocktails

This Thanksgiving mocktail is so easy and has all the flavors of fall (recipe below)! Our crockpot apple cider has only a few simple ingredients and steps to deliciousness as well.

Both are so easy to create your new favorite fall mocktail. Plus, the crockpot apple cider sure makes your house smell incredible! These are my FAVORITE Thanksgiving mocktails. 

Our Halloween mocktails are dark and moody and our Christmas mocktails are cheery and full of peppermint and gingerbread flavors. But our Thanksgiving mocktails bring all the flavors of fall including cloves, nutmeg and pomegranate plus much more!

Slow Cooker Apple Cider

Whether for adults or kids, you are sure to find a mocktail here that is a hit. If you have a meal of hot soups, I recommend a cool mocktail like this Instant Pot cranberry apple infused water recipe or even these mulled apple cider popsicles. 

If you have a cooler meal planned like charcuterie and salads, then this warm Starbucks apple cider or easy wassail are fantastic option! 

Cranberry Mocktails

This Prosecco drink with pomegranate and cranberries is the perfect holiday mocktail to serve at any winter gathering! It not only looks festive but has great Yuletide flavors as well. Plus, it only takes a few minutes to make.

A Cranberry Moscow Mule is the perfect festive drink to serve at every holiday party! Spicy ginger beer, cranberry juice and a twist of orange come together to make this refreshing mocktail!

This Holiday Cranberry Mocktail is perfect for your next Christmas or holiday celebration! It’s lightly sweet and bubbly and completely Whole30 compliant, made with simple ingredients like 100% cranberry juice, 100% apple juice, and seltzer (and no alcohol).

Cup of cranberry punch

Fun drinks during the holidays area must. And while my kids love hot drinks like cider and cocoa, sometimes a drink that can quench their thirst is more appreciated. This Cranberry Pineapple Mocktail is a delicious non-alcoholic holiday drink, perfect for kids or anyone who can’t or chooses not to drink.

To make sure all of my guests can get in on the fun drinks, I like to serve pitchers of this Non-Alcoholic Sangria with cranberries! Even the kids love it!!

It’s so easy to put together and it can chill in the fridge until it’s time to serve! Just before serving you add the sparkling mineral water or lemon-lime soda for a drink everyone can and will enjoy!

When the adults are celebrating with wine or cocktails, it’s nice to have a non alcoholic drink option. And this Cranberry Cosmo Mocktail is perfect for kids or anyone looking for a holiday drink without alcohol.

    Perfect timing! I was literally just looking for some mocktails ideas, so this list couldn’t come at better time! We are having small family gathering this year, and most of us don’t drink alcohol so this selection would be perfect to choose from!
