Orange Juice Alcohol Funny Picture Alcohol

Everybody's a non-drinker sometimes, and that's where mocktails come in. Whether you're the designated driver, an expecting mom-to-be, a dieter or just not a drinker at all, you can still enjoy delicious and gorgeous mocktails and non-alcoholic cocktails.

We've put together this list of mocktails, non-alcoholic mixed drinks, and traditional cocktail recipes that taste just as good with or without the alcohol.

This list also helps hosts and hostesses provide their non-drinking guests with beverages that look and taste just as fun as alcohol-based cocktails.

And if this list isn't enough for you, maybe you need a book full of 100Zero Proof Cocktails.

Entertaining with Mocktails

You don't want to be that host or hostess who offers cocktails for the drinking guests and points non-drinkers to a table with cans of soda. It's fine if that's what they actually want, but this makes it visually obvious they're not drinking.

It can also look like you don't care whether your non-drinking guests are having a fun time. It's far more thoughtful and memorable to have beautiful looking drinks for the non-drinkers, too.

So when you're entertaining, remember you can also dress up mocktails by serving them beautifully. This gives them a glamorous or fun look for your get-together.

Add some cuteness with cocktail umbrellas. They can add a fun, tropical look to any drink.
Invest in a gorgeous set of glasses just for the non-drinkers. Like these beautiful colorful Rainbow Splash Cocktail Glasses in various shapes and sizes.
Or these elegant Bormioli Rocco Martini glasses, which are beautiful in their simplicity.
Temporarily personalize your guests' glasses with these beautiful, washable wine glass markers.
Decorate glasses with these cute, funny Social Climber wine charms. They look like animals climbing up your glass!

Now for the recipes!

Cuddles on the Beach mocktail

You get three alternative recipes for a non-alcoholic version of Sex on the Beach. One tastes very close to the original, and the other two get a little more creative.

They all taste wonderful, and all without the alcohol.

Blue Shoe

A MixThatDrink original featuring blue fruit punch (or Koolaid's Ice Blue Raspberry Lemonade) and cranberry juice.

Because non-drinkers shouldn't have to miss out on the fun of a blue, bubbly cocktail.

Strawberry-Banana Margarita Recipe

This fruit smoothie of a margarita tastes just as wonderful without the tequila and triple sec. You can also replace the triple sec with orange juice if you want to be sure you get some of that orange flavor.

Mockmosa (Non-Alcoholic)

A surprising alternative to the Mimosa. While most non-alcoholic versions of this cocktail call for sparkling apple cider - which changes the flavor completely - this one uses a different non-alcoholic bubbly.

You can make these dry or sweet, depending on your preference.

Nojito Mocktail

A Mojito with all the flavor, but none of the rum. Seriously, the taste and look is so close to the original, no one would know it's a mocktail.

Hurricane Mocktail

This fruity cocktail tastes like the original Hurricane, which is really delicious. It's the passion fruit syrup that makes it special.

Virgin Mary (Non-Alcoholic)

Basically a Bloody Mary without the vodka. But this one has a really flavorful, savory recipe for the tomato base.

This is definitely not just plain ol' tomato juice with a garnish.

Pina Colada Recipe

You probably already know a Pina Colada tastes as good without the alcohol as it does with. Just leave out the rum, and you're good to go.

Bella Bellini

The Bellini, but with substitutions instead of champagne, and a couple of other tweaks.

Sea Breeze Drink Recipe

This classic combines vodka with cranberry and grapefruit juice, so it has all the flavor even if you leave out the vodka.

Tomato Lassi drink recipe

A yogurt and tomato based savory drink. Imagine a creamy tomato soup with a little bit of tang from the yogurt, and you get the idea.

Luscious Lou

Drop the orange vodka and Cointreau, and increase the orange juice.

Cranberry Coke Recipe

This tasty soft drink blends the flavor of cranberry with cola to make a delicious, refreshing drink that's perfect for summertime.
