Non-alcoholic cocktails don’t have to be a bummer. And, there are an increasing number of reasons to enjoy them over their boozy counterpoints. For example, if you’re pregnant, if you’re attempting to improve your health overall, if you’re taking a break from alcohol, or if you’re just tired of waking up a bit groggy.<\/p>\n

Winding Down with a Drink<\/h2>\n

That said, having something special to drink at the end of a day is a favorite ritual. A celebration of sorts, and a way for to transition from to-do<\/em> list mode, into a more relaxed frame of mind. I’m hoping these will provide some booze-free inspiration. Play around with aqua frescas, shrubs, kombuchas, and fresh fruit syrups. All can be fun components in mocktail type drinks. I like to keep the components in nice jars and decanters, and serve in pretty glassware. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

1. Rose & Rhubarb Soda<\/a> – (QUITOKEETO)
\n<\/em><\/strong>Keep blushy pink rhubarb syrup on hand, and you’re just a splash away from a special soda. Love this for brunches, and if you serve the syrup on the side everyone can sweeten to their liking. Get the recipe here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. Hibiscus, Lemongrass, Basil, and Honey Sweet Iced Tea<\/a><\/strong> – (Half Baked Harvest)
\nIf there’s hibiscus being brewed, I’m drinking it. Especially if something like this! I love the tangy sourness of this flower, and the incredible saturation of (anti-oxidant-packed) color. Hibiscus, lemongrass, lime\u00a0and basil, in one electric iced tea. Get the recipe here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

3. Beet-Sumac Soda<\/a> – (Healthyish) <\/em><\/strong>
\nJust look at that color! Fresh beet juice is paired with a quick syrup made from tangy sumac. Then you have bit of spritz from soda water, and a jolt of fresh lemon. Love this for autumn. Get the recipe here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4. Homemade Tarragon Soda<\/a> – (101 Cookbooks)<\/em><\/strong>
\nThis is what you do with any leftover tarragon you find in your refrigerator. When you steep sprigs of it, the scent is like falling into a cloud of anise, and fennel, and green-ish black licorice. Making a syrup from it is simple, keeps well refrigerated, and makes a beautiful soda.Get the recipe here.<\/a><\/p>\n

5. Pineapple Coconut Water<\/a> – (101 Cookbooks) <\/em><\/strong>

6. Tangerine Rosemary Mocktail<\/a> – (The Merrythought) <\/em><\/strong>
\nHerbal citrus drinks are a weakness, and I love the unexpected use of tangerine juice here. The rosemary syrup is made separately, which is nice because you can sweeten to taste easily. Get the recipe here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

7. Cranberry Rosemary Refresher<\/a> – (In Sonnet’s Kitchen) <\/em><\/strong>

8. Chai Blossom<\/a> – (Healthyish) <\/em><\/strong>
\nI could drink this all day, every day. Perhaps the most vibrant, refreshing thing you can do with chai spices, lime juice, and club soda. Get the recipe here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Eleven<\/p>\n

9. Louisa Shafia’s Watermelon, Mint, and Cider Vinegar\u00a0Tonic<\/a> – (Food52) <\/em><\/strong>
