Delicious Summer Mocktails

3 Delicious Summer Mocktails

Hello SUMMER!  

 

This season of life has brought A LOT of activity my way.  I recently added Chef Instructor at Sur La Table to my resume.  Woot woot!

 

What does this mean for you? 

 

If you find yourself in the Denver area, you can join me for in-person cooking classes this Fall!  Summer sessions are sold out.  I predict quite a few fun date nights and girls night out classes will pop onto my calendar with you.

 

Let’s plan to cook together soon! 

 

You can find all of my events here.

 

Just so we’re clear, this new role is in addition to the plate-juggling (see what I did there?) that I do serving up nutrition group coaching, teaching culinary nutrition workshops, and facilitating a membership program to serve my community.  

 

Please do not get left behind:  Doors to NOURISH – The Membership close on 8/1. Sign up now if you have not yet.

 

All of this to say, Mama has been busy!  I am practicing what I preach, and am staying mindful of self-care, which includes alone time, naps, and sipping on refreshing drinks.  

 

Here are three Delicious Summer mocktails that I have recently created. The family has given me their approval and delight.  I hope you like them as well!   

 

The Minty Stawberry Lime Delight was Oliver’s favorite!

Besides being delicious – this mocktail is loaded with vitamin C from the stawberries and lime. Also, mint is an excellent tummy soother. This may be your new summer drink!

Instructions

  1. Run strawberries through your juicer and mix monk fruit granules in your juice cup.
  2. Let sit for at least 2 minutes.
  3. In a pitcher, muddle the mint with 1 cup of the sparkling water.
  4. Once leaves turn a deeper green, add strawberry juice, remaining sparkling water and the lime juice.
  5. Stir until combined.
  6. Fill drinking glasses with ice and pour mixture on top.
  7. Garnish with strawberries, extra mint and lime slices.
  8. Serve immediately.

Mocktails are a great non-alcoholic way to enjoy a refreshment without the detriments of alcohol.
