Dry January has become a popular way to reset after the holiday season, giving your body a break and embracing healthier habits to start the year fresh. But cutting out alcohol doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor or fun! With a little creativity, non-alcoholic cocktails (aka mocktails) can be just as delightful as their boozy counterparts. At B&B Beverage Management, we’re proud to offer customized non-alcoholic options for events, ensuring every guest has something special to sip on.
Let’s explore some of the best Dry January cocktails and how they can elevate your gatherings this season – or any time of the year.
1. Citrus spritz
Refreshing and light, this mocktail is perfect for brunch or an afternoon event. With a mix of fresh citrus juices, sparkling water, and a hint of rosemary, it’s a crowd-pleaser that looks just as good as it tastes.
Ingredients:
- Freshly squeezed orange and grapefruit juice
- Sparkling water or soda
- Rosemary sprig for garnish
Pro Tip: For a visually stunning presentation, serve in tall glasses with sugared rims and add a slice of citrus for garnish.
2. Berry Bliss Mojito
This non-alcoholic twist on a classic mojito is packed with fresh berries and mint, making it both delicious and Instagram-worthy.
Ingredients:
- Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- Mint leaves
- Lime juice
- Simple syrup (or a sugar-free alternative)
- Club soda
Pro Tip: Muddle the berries and mint gently to release their flavors without over-mashing. Serve in a highball glass with crushed ice for that authentic mojito vibe.
3. Spiced apple mule
Perfect for colder days, this cozy take on the Moscow Mule swaps vodka for spiced apple cider, combining the warmth of cinnamon with the zing of ginger beer.
Ingredients:
- Spiced apple cider
- Ginger beer (non-alcoholic)
- Fresh lime juice
- Cinnamon stick for garnish
Pro Tip: Serve in a traditional copper mule mug for an authentic feel, and don’t forget the cinnamon stick for that extra touch of elegance.
4. Tropical Sunrise
Bring summer vibes to your winter evenings with this layered beauty. The combination of pineapple juice, coconut water, and a splash of grenadine creates a drink that’s as delicious as it is stunning.
Ingredients:
- Pineapple juice
- Coconut water
- Grenadine
- Ice cubes
Pro Tip: Slowly pour the grenadine into the glass over the back of a spoon to create a gorgeous layered effect.
5. Herbal Lemon fizz
For those who prefer subtle and sophisticated flavors, this drink combines fresh lemon, honey, and herbal tea for a relaxing yet refreshing mocktail.
