Description

Fresh and fruity!

A mocktail is a nonalcoholic beverage designed to mimic the flavor and presentation of a traditional cocktail — minus the alcohol. These drinks often combine fruit or vegetable juices, herbs, sparkling water and flavored syrups to create refreshing and complex profiles. Mocktails allow people to enjoy the social and sensory experience of a cocktail while avoiding alcohol-related health risks.

Ingredients

1 cup pomegranate juice
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
¾ cup nonalcoholic sparkling wine or sparkling grape juice
24 grapes
1 green apple, chopped
1 orange, chopped

Directions

Add pomegranate juice and lemon juice to the shaker with ice and shake for 30 seconds.
In a tall glass, add ice and chopped fruit, strain and pour the shaker contents into the glass.
Leave room to top with sparkling white grape juice.

Alcohol provides calories but no essential nutritional value — no vitamins, minerals or other nutrients the body needs to function. As research evolves, recommendations in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans increasingly emphasize limiting alcohol intake due to its links to chronic health conditions, including certain cancers, liver disease and cardiovascular issues. In fact, the risks associated with alcohol use are now considered to outweigh any potential benefits.
