Your eyes dart nervously between menu boards adorned with colorful chalk patterns, your voice trembling with trepidation at the bartender’s potential response. You’ve had to squeeze through a crowd of other noisy, boisterous patrons just to claim this prized spot along the bar, and now it’s your time to shine.
It’s never a bad idea to be more mindful about your drinking. That can be easier said than done if you’re at a bar with friends who are indulging in alcoholic beverages while you’re there.
We’re not saying drinking is going out of fashion. After all, who doesn’t love an ice-cold pint, a glass of wine or gin and tonic after a long day at work? And when out for the night, the occasional cocktail can be a real treat. But drinking a little less could do most of us some good health-wise. And what better way to do so than a top-notch alcohol-free alternative. That way, you won’t miss out on the fun, just the hangover.
The following spirit-free drinks and mocktails should be available at just about any bar or drinking establishment you find yourself in. Most of these are made with mixers or other cocktail-related ingredients that most of these places carry anyway.
- Orange juice + Cranberry juice
- Sprite + Orange juice
- Soda + cranberry + lime
- Ginger beer
- Shirley Temple
- Roy Rogers
- Virgin Tom Collins
- “Virgin” or “clean” versions of any cocktail on the menu
- Syrup + soda
- Virgin Bloody Mary
- Water with lemon or lime
Keep it simple with a garnish, add bitters, or just ask your bartender to get creative. Most bars are trying to be more inclusive to patrons who don’t drink, and there may be a few free drinks in your future if you order a non-alcoholic cocktail.
