During my girlfriend’s bachelorette party, we had a mocktail hour at my house. As I was planning the day, I knew it was supposed to include one pregnant girl, one breast-feeding and one teenage bridesmaid. So of course mocktails were our way to go. Saturday everyone was boring and stuck to Shirley Temples. I did however have the recipes and fixings for other mocktails I thought would be fun to offer…
So in honor of my 250th post (yay!), I’m going to enjoy a few mocktails myself! Here are a few fall appropriate mocktails I was ready to make…
Mocktail Mixings
Virgin Long Island Iced Tea
In a pitcher mix together 2 c. strong brewed unsweetened iced tea, 1 qt. apple cider, 1/2 c. lemon juice, 1/2 c. ginger ale. Pour in pint glasses over ice and garnish with lemon slices.
Mock Mimosa
In a champagne class, pour equal parts sparkling white grape juice and orange juice.
Cranberry Cocktail
Mix 2 parts cranberry juice an 1 part seltzer water and pour over ice.
Shirley Temple – The Classic Mocktail
In a highball glass, pour Sprite or ginger ale over ice, top off with grenadine and garnish with a few cherries.
I enjoyed my evening with my girls, it was nice to have some downtime between our day out and our evening ahead.
What unconventional celebrations have you thrown?

bachelorette parties are kind of interesting, i wonder if they also have same activities with bachelor parties “
That depends on the bride & groom. There are lot’s of different rituals that you pick and choose the ones that fit.
