Non-Alcoholic Juicy Julep
Pineapple, orange and lime juices come together in this non-alcoholic version of a favorite cocktail.
Not surprisingly, whatever I eat, my toddler wants to eat. Whatever I drink, my toddler wants to try. So when we have a glass of wine or a cocktail, he starts wondering where his drink is. I’ve never been much of juice person, but now I’ve started stocking more in my fridge. For my son, and also for me. I like having a drink in my hand that he can come sip from.
So here is a beverage all can enjoy, both kids and adults— a non-alcoholic version of the ever popular mint julep. If you want to add a little bourbon in to make this mocktail a cocktail, go right ahead. But you won’t miss it, I can promise you that. This drink is plenty refreshing and enjoyable all on its own.

This looks so refreshing! My kids always come by for a sip of my drink, too (even now that they’re older!) and I know they would love this one.
