What Are Fun Nonalcoholic Drinks?

What are some fun nonalcoholic drinks to serve at the reception?


For starters, mocktails are a great alternative to alcoholic beverages. These are just variations of well-known drinks—sans the sauce. For example, substitute grape juice (red or white) for wine to make a tasty nonalcoholic sangria. Or, mix tea with any kind of juice, add some lemon or orange slices, and you’ve got your own version of a Long Island Iced Tea. Of course, a Virgin Mary (add a little more pepper, Tabasco or Worcestershire sauce for extra zip) is always a crowd pleaser. For more clever mocktail recipes.

Another option is to set up a smoothie station. Nothing hits the spot on a warm day better than a frothy and fruity creation. All you need to do is request that the bartender have seasonal fruit on hand and then set him loose. We’re willing to bet he’s pretty handy with a blender! And finally, don’t forget the sparkling cider. Come toasting time, everyone should be armed with a glass of bubbly.
