Mocktails are perfect for any occasion where you want to stay sober but don't want to miss out on the fun. Mocktails allow you to lift your glass at the holiday party and enjoy the colorful flavors of a celebratory drink — without any of alcohol's adverse effects. 

What is a mocktail? 

Mocktails (non-alcoholic cocktails) are drinks that often taste and look like traditional cocktails but without alcohol.  Making a mocktail is a perfect opportunity to explore using your creative juices to concoct new drinks bursting with nutrition and flavor. Instead of using liquor as an ingredient, you can mix juices, sodas, syrups, fruits, spices, and garnishes. You can also add powdered vitamins like Root'd MULTI for extra hydration and nutrition.  When these ingredients are mixed with the right proportion, you may achieve mocktails that mimic the taste of bourbon, gin, and other liquors.

These can potentially impact your liver, heart, brain, pancreas, and immune system. * Alcohol consumption may also increase your risk of developing malignancies, such as liver and breast cancer. * 

      Torn between enjoying the party and staying healthy? Well, worry no more! Mocktails are the perfect way to cut calories and sugars without sacrificing taste. They can be made with fresh fruits, juices, herbs, electrolytes, and vitamin powder making them delicious and incredibly healthy.

        The morning after a night out can be rough, but it doesn't have to be. That's right! No hangovers. No fuzzy-headedness. Just a delicious mocktail packed with vitamins and essential nutrients that will help you get a night of sound sleep and wake up feeling refreshed. * Unlike cocktails and alcoholic beverages, mocktails don't cause your body to produce excess cortisol, which causes your head to hurt in the morning. *

        4. Keep you safe and sane

        Mocktails helps you to stay safe and sane throughout the celebration

          When you're drinking, you're not just taking in alcohol—you're also ingesting a whole host of chemicals that affect your brain and body. Alcohol can make you feel relaxed, but it can also impair judgment and decision-making skills, which means you might end up making decisions that you regret later. And if those decisions are dangerous or embarrassing? You'll have a rough time coping with the consequences. For example, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, more than 10,000 people lose their lives each year due to drunk driving.  

          With mocktails, you don't have to worry the next day about your actions the night before. Mocktails contain vitamins and minerals that can calm you down and relax your body to help you sleep, unlike cocktails and alcoholic drinks that give you headaches and leave you hungover when you wake up in the morning. * 

          5. Safe for Children and Pregnant Women
