Description

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 citrus tea
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
¼ cup orange juice
¼ cup honey

Directions

Add citrus tea, lemon juice and orange juice to a container with ice.
Slightly warm the honey in a microwave oven (10 seconds) so it blends more easily, then add the honey to the same container.
Shake for 30 seconds and strain into a champagne or white wine glass.

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.
