virgin drink

Cocktail without liquor

A virgin drink is a cocktail made without alcohol—a mocktail.

The name plays on the idea of purity or inexperience: I'll have a virgin margarita.

Common versions include virgin piña coladas, virgin daiquiris, and virgin Bloody Marys (sometimes called Virgin Marys).

The term allows ordering familiar cocktails in non-alcoholic form.
