THE NON-ALCOHOLIC COCKTAIL : THE TRENDY DRINK
It is no longer unusual to find on a restaurant or bar menu a long list of non-alcoholic cocktails, also known as "Virgin Cocktails", alongside the most famous and most popular cocktails for alcohol consumers. Mojito, Bellini, Martini, Caipirinha, Cosmopolitan or Margarita, all reinvent themselves without alcohol to allow those who do not drink alcohol to enjoy a soft version of their favourite drinks. Today it is also easy to transform your home into a mixology bar and concoct tasty alcohol-free cocktails for the evening or a festive aperitif.

The recipe for success: the benefits of alcohol-free cocktails
Non-alcoholic cocktails have many advantages for consumers who choose to drink them. Beyond the fact that they do not contain alcohol, they imitate the most popular cocktails in bars and restaurants. The main advantage of a non-alcoholic cocktail is its taste, which will be more or less intense due to the presence of certain fruits and vegetables or original syrups. The absence of alcohol will allow the basic ingredients to be enhanced and given pride of place. For lovers of all kinds of spices and fresh herbs, or of syrups, this is an opportunity to savour every subtle note. The non-alcoholic cocktail is easy to make at home, and democratic. It will allow you to satisfy your guests by offering them various tastes and flavours, from orange to mint, passing by pineapple, lemon, raspberry, coconut, ginger without forgetting the panoply of syrups with regressive flavours that exist at the moment. The second advantage is the absence of alcohol, which is beneficial to health.
