Mocktails: Mock Cocktails. Get it?
You can have every bit as much fun with delicious and exciting non-alcoholic drinks, saving on sugar, empty calories and yes, alcohol.
Make your mocktails Fun and FUNctional!
I am including Levana Nourishments in my mocktails for maximum nutrition.
In honor of July 4th, let’s make some patriotic mocktails:
Grand old mocktails the colors of the Grand Old Flag!
Get yourself a high quality blender:
You will get a perfectly smooth mixture even while you keep all the fiber in.
Frozen Vegetables and Fruits:
My favorites: intensely flavored, clean, cut, at the height of their ripeness and sweetness.
Less ice, more frozen veggies and fruits!
Good patriotic cook that I am, I am thinking red food, white food, blue foods. The more intense the food color, the more nourishing the food. Please include even the ones you think are weird: cauliflower, white beans, jicama etc… They will add bulk and texture and will go totally undetected.
