Cheerwine Cherry Bounce
The Cherry Bounce is actually the official drink of Raleigh, the state capital of North Carolina and has a long history in the area and even enjoyed by George Washington in the 1700's. My version is made with a North Carolina soft drink, Cheerwine, a cherry flavored soda for a fun and full of cherry flavor sip!
Red, White and Blue Sangria Mocktail
Sangria’s are usually made with wine, but let’s let the kids enjoy this special treat also! This patriotic Red, White, and Blue Sangria is a “mocktail” for everyone to enjoy. Made with white grape juice, raspberries, blueberries, and apples that have been cut into star shapes. It’s a great way to sneak some healthy fruit in for the kids! …with the fun star shapes, how could they resist this tasty and festive drink?
Pollinator Mocktail
Pollen season was definitely the inspiration for this mocktail I named the Pollinator. just three simple ingredients, honey simple syrup, lemon juice and ginger ale. Give it a try and you will find it very refreshing! You can also easily add some gin, rum or whiskey to make this a fun cocktail to share with friends.
