Tis the season to enjoy some festive food and drinks, but not everyone can – or wants to – imbibe. Enter: Healthy Holiday Mocktails!

Just because a holiday drink doesn’t have alcohol doesn’t mean it can’t be special and fun. Here are some healthy holiday mocktails to sip and savor. And as a bonus, you can share these with your kiddos!

Read on for these healthy holiday mocktails!

Sparkling Cranberry Orange

For this, you’ll need:
1.5 oz sparkling water
2 oz cranberry juice
2.5 oz apple cider or juice
10 cranberries and an orange wedge

To make this one, muddle the orange and cranberries in the cranberry juice and then stir in the water and cider. Serve over ice with a few cranberries or an orange slice for garnish. You can also use ginger ale instead of sparkling water!

Ho-Ho-Holiday Mule

Who doesn’t love a good mule? This one takes:

1 oz cinnamon or simple syrup

1 oz lime juice

1 oz cranberry juice

Ginger ale or ginger beer

To make: Mix all the ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and then strain into a glass with or without ice. Top with the ginger ale or ginger beer. You can garnish with a lime wedge.

Virgin Sangria

This one is a crowd pleaser! You’ll need equal parts of:

Orange juice

Apple Juice

Pomegranate juice

Sparkling water

1-2 cups of chopped fruit (we like apples, oranges, grapes, peaches, pomegranate seeds)

Mix together the juices and fruit and top with the sparkling water to taste. No garnish necessary, this drink is festive enough!
