Notes

Pro tip: Use a lot of ice when shaking your drink to chill the drink further. This will help it last longer when ice cubes are actually added to the drink itself.
What is the purpose of a mocktail? Non-alcoholic drinks are great for pregnant women, designated drivers, or simply anyone who chooses not to drink. It's the best way to attend social events without suffering the aftermath of alcohol the next morning.
Are mocktails good for health?Unlike alcohol, mocktails can actually hydrate you instead of dehydrate you. Especially if you use a base like coconut water or cranberry juice that contains electrolytes. But it's important to keep in mind that a lot of mocktails have a large amount of sugar as well.
