Dryvember’s Mocktail of the Week #5 – Blueberry Mojito
Social occasions can be pretty hard if you’re staying off the booze – sometimes the thought of sipping boring water, having a juice or a soft drink are enough to make you want to stay in.
But staying off alcohol on a social occasion, doesn’t mean giving everything up! We have gathered some of our favourite mocktail recipes, which have all the pizazz of a ‘normal’ cocktail, but none of the alcohol!
Whether you’re the designated driver, or taking full part in our #Dryvember campaign, a mocktail can be a great choice.
For a mojito with extra mojo (of the sober variety!) go for this gorgeous blueberry mocktail. Fresh and fruity … it’s as good as the the real deal.. minus the hangover!
