Do-it-Yourself Mocktails
Do-it-yourself mocktails
Move over Manhattan. Compliments naturally flavoured, zero-calorie fizzy waters, and juices mean alcohol-free cocktails are as complex and delicious as the classics.
1. Make glassware count
Mocktail mixing should get as much care as cocktail making. Set out glasses, from tall Collins to Champagne flutes and goblets, add a shiny ice bucket with tongs, and don’t forget skewers and swizzle sticks.
2. Time to stock up
Choose flavoured sparkling waters and a selection of your favourite beverages. Think juices, lemonade and iced teas to suit different palates, ranging from tart to sweet and fruity.
3. Get creative!
Shake up cocktail hour with inspired flavour combinations. Start with juice as a base, then top with fizzy water and a pretty and tasty garnish! Customize to your liking. Sugared cranberries, anyone?
