Thanksgiving mocktails, made easy.
Three fall drinks the whole table can have. One squeeze of Drizz each.
No simple syrup, no ginger beer, no bar skills.
The short answer
The best Thanksgiving mocktails
The easiest Thanksgiving mocktails are fall versions of classics: a Cranberry Mule, a Pomegranate Paloma and an Apple Cider Margarita. Each one is ice, a splash of seasonal juice, sparkling water and one squeeze of Drizz Mixer Drops, so there is no simple syrup or ginger beer to buy. Drizz adds zero sugar and no caffeine, and one bottle makes up to 30 drinks, so a table of 10 can have two rounds from a single bottle.

Questions
Holiday mocktail questions, answered.
What mocktails should I serve at Thanksgiving?
Fall versions of drinks people already love: a Cranberry Mule, a Pomegranate Paloma and an Apple Cider Margarita. They use seasonal juice, look festive and take about 3 minutes each.
How much Drizz do I need for Thanksgiving?
One bottle makes up to 30 drinks. For a table of 10 having two drinks each, one bottle per flavor is plenty.
Can I make Thanksgiving mocktails ahead of time?
Mix the juice and Drizz in a pitcher up to a few hours ahead and keep it cold. Add the sparkling water and ice right before serving so it stays bubbly.
Are these mocktails sugar free?
Drizz Mixer Drops add zero sugar. They're sweetened with sucralose. The only sugar comes from the splash of cranberry, pomegranate or apple juice. Use unsweetened cranberry juice to cut it further.
Are they kid friendly?
Yes. There's no alcohol, and Mixer Drops have no caffeine.
Can I turn them into cocktails?
Yes, if you're 21 or older. Add 1.5 oz vodka to the mules or 1.5 oz tequila to the paloma and margarita.
Will these work for Christmas too?
Yes. The Cranberry Mule and Pomegranate Paloma are holiday classics. Swap the rosemary for a sugared cranberry garnish for a Christmas look.
