3 Fun Summer Mocktails

I used to be someone who would only drink water, but lately I’ve been really enjoying a fun little drink that’s more exciting than plain water.

Maybe it’s because my husband is such a juice lover, so his love of flavored drinks is slowly coming on to me. I don’t know.

So I wanted to share a few fun summer drinks that are delicious and you’ll probably find me mixing throughout these next few months.

 Berry Lime Mocktail
INGREDIENTS:
Sparkling Water (I chose Sprindrift Raspberry Lime)

Blood Orange Paloma
This one is my fave!
INGREDIENTS:
Blood Orange Juice
Grapefruit Juice
Splash of Lime Juice
DIRECTIONS: 
This one is super easy, just mix all ingredients. You can feel free to add a bigger portion of either juice, depending on which one you like more. I typically add more blood orange juice since that is my personal preference.

Raspberry Apricot Bellini
INGREDIENTS: 
Apricot Nectar (or Peach Nectar)
Raspberries
Honey
Lemon
 
DIRECTIONS: 
In a blender, mix raspberries, honey, & lemon (add portions according to your preference as to how sweet/sour you’d like the drink to be). Pour puree into a glass and add nectar.
 
You can also freeze the raspberry puree for an hour or so, then bring it back to the blender for a more “slushie” type of drink.
