It's no secret. I like to drink. A lot. But not everyone has the same appreciation of alcohol that I do, and that's okay.
But I will not stand for my sober sisters settling for boring booze-free options (try saying that after a bottle of fizz!). There is no reason why non-alcoholic options can't be sexy, so I thought I'd put together a collection of some inspiring 'straight' drinks. These are great alternatives to lemon, lime and bitters. Serve them at your next do and your Desi Driver friends will thank you.
Donna Hay brilliance - jugs of water flavoured with ginger, lemongrass, and lots of fruit. Bring on Summer!
Spice up your Winter with an interesting take on a hot chocolate - put a skewer through a vanilla bean and then wrap it in a cinnamon quill to use it as a stirrer.
Mint tea, classic. Looks fab wrapped up in a bundle rather than hidden in a tea pot.
Make drinks fun for those not 'drinking'. These DIY mochas are kind of like the beverage version of an affogatto!
Add some zest to your water pitcher with slices of fruit, and your favourite herb. Here, Sunday Suppers has combined lemon, orange and lime with sprigs of fresh thyme. Best if left for a couple of hours for the flavour to intensify.
Flavoured mint water not only cleanses the palate but also serves as a stunning centrepiece. From Sunday Suppers
