Virgin Cocktails
I'm having a party this weekend. A good friend of mine was just recently diagnosed with a genetic liver problem and can't ever drink alcohol again. Poor girl.
But I don't want her to feel left out of the boozing. I wanted to have on hand ingredients to make one or two virgin cocktails for her. I tried googling, but wow...so many of them! I want simple (just a few, easy to find ingredients) and yummy. Don't care necessarily about low calorie.
Who's got a recipe?

Frozen Strawberry daquiry
Get your favorite premade mix (the premade mixes without alcohol) add a few ripe strawberries, ice and instead of rum I add sprite. Top with whip cream and a whole strawberry cut on the glass.
Great for a hot summer day
You can do the same with Pinacolata!0 -
Pina Colada Punch (Make in advance and add rum to individual servings if desired)
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple
1 (8 ounce) can coconut cream
1 (46 fluid ounce) can pineapple juice
2 cups rum (optional and prevents full freezing)
1 (2 liter) bottle lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage
In a large plastic container, combine ice cream, crushed pineapple, coconut cream, pineapple juice.
Mix well and slowly stir in the lemon-lime soda. Freeze for 4 hours or until slushy. Add rum if desired.0 -
I like virgin mojitos.
Simple Syrup
Mint leaves
Lime
Club soda
Muddle 6-10 mint leaves and half a lime in a glass. Add syrup, top with club soda.
If your friend likes bottles mixers, lots of them work well with some club soda.
There are also wines with the alcohol removed. There's a trace amount left so I don't know if that's appropriate for them or not. And they might suck, I've never tried them.0 -

I love peach so this is a virgin peach bellini and so simple.
1 bottle of sparkling apple cider. ( I like the Martinelli's)
3 peaches, peeled and chopped.
Put chopped peaches in freezer for an hour before- to make them just a little frozen
Then blend 1/2 bottle of cider and the peaches in blender. Pour the pureed mixture into glass and top with remaining cider.0 -
