Easy Virgin Cocktails

There’s nothing more refreshing at an afternoon barbecue than a cold cocktail. Whether you’re pregnant, underage, or just trying to avoid alcohol, you might feel a little left out amidst the mojitos and margaritas. While there are many options for fancy virgin cocktails, I wanted to bring you a few easy recipes you can put together with just a few store bought ingredients. You don’t always have time to boil blueberry mint syrup for your cocktail and you shouldn’t have to in order to enjoy a refreshing drink.

Any of these cocktails are beautiful garnished with the freshness of summer. Think lime wedges, orange slices, mint leaves, or the classic maraschino cherry. Get creative and mix things up with your favorite flavor of juice or soda, or be adventurous and try a new flavor. What I have listed below are my favorites but the possibilities are almost endless. You don’t need alcohol to have fun at your summer barbecue, but you will need a drink!
