Combining soda water with mango nectar, mint, jalapeno pepper, and chaat masala. This drink certainly packs a strong punch.

The mixture of fresh mint, sweet mango and spicy jalapeno creates an explosion in the mouth.

But be aware – the more jalapenos you add the spicier the mocktail will be. Add at your own risk!

Possibly the most popular of all cocktails. But what’s this, no vodka?

That’s right, you can still get the same kick in a Bloody Mary without the use of alcohol.

By substituting the vodka for horseradish, hot sauce and black pepper – you still get a take-your-breathe-away punch of flavour.

The recipe takes around two minutes to prepare and make. It’s perfect served with celery sticks.

The Black Grape

This fruit-infused, antioxidant fuelled mocktail is a delight for the pallet.

A satisfying mixture of fennel, cumin, and thyme. This recipe provides a warming but slightly bitter mocktail.

Although, this may take a little longer to produce than some of the other mocktails. This is mainly because of the cumin, fennel and thyme, which all need to be roasted in a pan.

Once created this mocktail is great for the immune system. It’s refreshing and original and is perfect sipped from a long glass.

Pistachio Milk

If you’re a lover of creamy cocktails, then this is for you!

Although, the tamest out of all the recipes. This delightful mocktail is subtle yet, spicy.

The blend of pistachios, cardamom, and vanilla makes for a smooth sensation in the mouth. It’s perfect served in a tulip glass over ice.

However, if it’s a real spice kick you’re looking for – you can add a couple of teaspoons of cinnamon into the mix!

This recipe is more time consuming and can take up to 30 minutes to create. But, it is certainly worth the extra effort!
