What is a Mocktail?

A mocktail is a traditionally alcoholic drink, made with out the alcohol. I had a version of this Christmas Mocktail when I was in Park City for the Inspired Retreat. It was so refreshing and yummy that I had to make myself a whole pitcher. Overall, this takes 5 minutes or less to throw together and is the most festive fruity drink this December!

What Do I Need to Make This?

A super simple and super quick mocktail recipe that only takes 5 ingredients to make! Here’s what you’ll need:

• Cranberry Juice – perfectly Christmas-y!
• Pineapple Juice – some sweet acidity to go along with the tart cranberry flavor.
• Orange Juice – another slightly Christmas-y flavor with a great citrus tang.
• Sprite – or sparkling water. I thought a little club soda or sparkling water would have made this perfect but didn’t have any on hand. I added that to the printable recipe below, but it’s totally optional.
• Ice – the ice is key and makes this cold and wonderful to sip.
• Sugar – this is also optional and is used to make the rims look fancy.

How to Make a Christmas Mocktail

The directions for making this are ridiculously easy! If you want to get fancy like, dip the rim of your glass in sugar!

1. Measure out and stir cranberry, orange and pineapple juices together in a pitcher. Add the ice and sprite (or sparkling water).
2. Dip the damp edge of glasses into sugar, if desired.
3. Pour into glasses and serve.
