On this Just A Merry Mocktail Monday, I’d like to walk you through my at-home zero-proof mocktail recipe book library and share some tips on how to ensure your DIY mocktail-making game is strong.
Ever been stuck trying to think of a good Mocktail recipe?
Have you had a special occasion and wanted a special NonAlc Bevie to celebrate with?!
Well, there are LOADS of books out there!! Not only do they have such helpful advice and information… but they are beautifully put together and have wonderful imagery! Sober Curator Pro Tip: It’s a great place to find inspiration for your Mocktail Making and even your IG posts (if you love to live your life on the ‘Gram with visual storytelling.)
There are many dedicated Non-Alc and Zero Proof books out there to choose from! Even some of the NA Brands have recipe books and pamphlets for you to check out! But, hey, if you have old cocktail books… you can modify them!!! That’s right, you don’t have to toss them out. Substituting the heavy-loaded stuff for Non-Alc options is a quick fix to level up your Mocktail Game!
If you want to get a little fancy, culinary books are great ways to get “out of the box” ideas with complimentary flavor profiles too!
Hope you’re inspired!
Can’t wait to see your creations!
Well, Until Next Week!
To Your Health!
