mocktails

Alcohol-free mixed drinks

Mocktails are cocktails made without alcohol—mixed drinks that mimic the presentation and complexity of their boozy counterparts using juices, sodas, syrups, and garnishes.

The term blends "mock" with "cocktail." Bars and restaurants increasingly offer mocktail menus for designated drivers, pregnant women, or anyone avoiding alcohol: The mocktail list had a virgin mojito and a sparkling berry spritz.
