Holiday gatherings are a great time to treat your guests to fun and festive drinks. But don't leave the designated drivers or non-drinkers at your party sipping on ginger ale and juice all night. Spice up the non-alcoholic beverages you serve with some recipes created by Victor Miller, founder of the Bartending School of Ontario. Your guests won't be able to tell the mocktails from the alcoholic originals and they'll love these new concoctions.
Strawberry reindeer daiquiri
Miller says this tastes just like a strawberry daiquiri.
5 large frozen strawberries
5 ounces (150 mL) Tom Collins mix-a mixture of club soda, lemon juice and sugar
Dash grenadine syrup
Rim a martini glass with lemon and dip into sugar to coat. Mix ingredients in a blender and pour over crushed ice, garnish with strawberries lightly coated in powdered sugar and speared.
Frozen strawberry colada
This is Miller's alcohol-free version of the piña colada.
5 large frozen strawberries
2 tsp (10 mL) cream of coconut
Dash grenadine syrup dash
Pineapple juice to fill glass
Mix ingredients in a blender and pour into a tall glass over crushed ice. Garnish with a pineapple slice and a speared chocolate-dipped strawberry.
