My Five Favourite Mocktail Recipes

My Five Favourite Mocktail Recipes

It might seem that alcohol is everywhere and challenging to avoid. Still, according to statistics, young people (and I don’t necessarily count myself as one of them!) drink less than people in the same age group did 10-15 years ago. Remember when everybody used to smoke, and now we have a visceral reaction when someone lights up? Mocktails are becoming increasingly popular and widely available, but check my five favourite mocktail recipes for a few fun alcohol-free drink ideas.

Is it possible that drinking is on the same trajectory? I live in Glasgow, and the drinking culture seems alive and thriving; this is especially evident when I go out for my early Saturday morning run and have to dodge piles of uneaten chips and other unpleasantries of the night before.

All this information confirms that I have made the right choice to embrace sober living and steer clear of alcohol and its short-lived-fun shelf life.

Just because I have given up drinking alcohol doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy a delicious and pretty beverage. Mocktails are rising; I even attended Club Soda’s mindful drinking festival in Glasgow in 2018.

I never thought I would be typing enthusiastically about a festival without alcohol.

I also never thought I would be typing enthusiastically about my passion for making mixed drinks without alcohol in them, but here I am.
