Sharing the best mocktails to enjoy this spring!
Hello friends! How’s the week going so far? I hope you have a lovely morning. I have a few zoom calls today and am working on the next FIT team programming. Join us here!
While most of us are still braving the cold from the cold winter weather, I’ve been dreaming of warmer weather, spring/summer BBQs and pool parties. Today, I’d like to invite you to join in my daydreaming as I share some refreshing and delicious mochille recipes to wear this spring.
A mocktail is a delicious and fun drink, minus the alcohol. Whether you’re anticipating, or just cutting back like yours really is, Mocktails are a fun way to switch up your spin. And while I’m not completely abstaining from alcohol, I’ve noticed a huge difference in my energy, productivity, mood, and skin levels since I’ve cut back to 1-2 drinks max per week. You can read more about my journey here!
I also love the beautiful array of colors that mocktails often come with, as well as the fresh ingredients that go into them. You can easily switch up flavor profiles, depending on what you have on hand, and experiment with different ingredients to create a springy Mocktail recipe that perfectly floats your boat. You can use seasonal fruits to flavor your Mocktails, and add splashes of flavor with simple ingredients like lemon juice and lemon juice. Really, what’s not to love?
I’m sharing a tour for some Faves! These are all very easy to put together and absolutely delicious.
Top 10 Spring Mocktails
A round up of my favorite, easy and healthy springtime treat
Mojito mocktail
This is a delicious spring cocktail with the fresh flavors of lime and mint. You would never know the alcohol was missing, and it has less sugar than traditional sugar.

- Two tablespoons of fresh mint
- Club soda
- Liquid monk fruit, to taste (my fave Now Foods)
directions
- Add lime and mint to a cup and stir.
- Top with club soda, then stir in monk fruit to taste. Boom! So fresh and easy.
Lavender lemonade
I love anything lavender and can’t wait to try this. It would be perfect for serving at a dinner party in the spring.

Collapse of virgin clay
Everyone in the family can enjoy this chocolate treat!
We celebrate mudslides, but I hate the sugar crash that usually comes afterward. With this recipe, I can avoid the accident and still enjoy a decadent dessert, after a balanced meal, of course!
Classic dining set
This is the mocktail I like to order when we’re out: club soda, cranberry splash, and lime. Simple, light, refreshing and delicious. Not a sugar bomb and alcohol free.
Bonus: This Sparkling Lemonade Iced Tea isn’t technically a mocktail, but it’s too good not to share!
Now it’s your turn, friends. Tell me: What is your summer drink?? I’d love to hear your favorites!
