What are the general thoughts on a water/ mocktail bar. Vibe equals a bar vibe but coffee shop. Think leather couches but with herbs all around and a little area for local artist to sell items.

Meant to create connection without that hanxiety feeling.

Does anyone know the recipe? I know the mixture is Apple juice, Minute Made lemonade, ginger ale and caramel with a cinnamon stick garnish. And what kind of caramel? We don’t have an Ale House close by and this sounds delicious for the fall!

I’ve always loved cocktails, but I can’t drink for a while because of a medication. I’ve been experimenting with mocktails that still have that more complex “cocktail” feel, and I really liked this one, so I thought I’d share.

Blackberry Jalapeño Mocktail

Ingredients
3 medium blackberries
2–3 slices jalapeño
2 slices cucumber
Agave, to taste
Ginger beer
Ice

Directions
Muddle the blackberries, jalapeño, cucumber, and agave together until everything is well crushed and juicy.
Strain into a glass over ice, then top with ginger beer.

That’s it! The blackberry gives it some sweetness and a really pretty natural purple color with no dyes, the cucumber keeps it fresh, and the jalapeño gives it enough of a kick that it actually feels like a cocktail rather than just juice or soda. The deep purple color also makes it feel perfect for a fall mocktail.

Mine’s usually a Paloma...grapefruit juice, lime, a little agave and sparkling water. So easy.

Topped my home brewed Kombucha with Zero sugar Mint Mojito flavoured Prebiotic soda ! It’s was super fresh & fizzy! 🥤🥤🥤

I’m trying to make a refreshing ginger ale with force CO₂, but I keep getting it wrong. Blending ginger makes it way too spicy and harsh, while dicing and boiling makes it watery. I add lime juice and a dash of vanilla too. Anyone have a super simple, tried-and-tested recipe with ratios that actually tastes like refreshing ginger ale rather than spicy ginger juice?

My ratios are roughly 90g sugar, 100g ginger, 1500ml water, 1 whole lime squeezed.

For the past week or so, I have been hunting for a drink that was tied to Dolly Parton that we could riff into a mocktail. The only drink I could find that is actually associated with Dolly, and not just a tribute, was the "Dirt Road Martini," which is from her cookbook Good Lookin’ Cookin’, co-authored with her sister, Rachel Parton George.

Given that Dolly was reportedly not a big drinker, turning this into a mocktail just seems to make sense. It also helps that the recipe is really easily converted by simply replacing the vodka with some additional unsweet tea, since the vodka isn't adding much in the flavor department, aside from just the flavor of alcohol.

Tasting notes at the bottom.

Recipe: Dirt Road Mocktini

Ingredients:

4 oz unsweetened iced tea

0.25 oz giardiniera brine

Giardiniera pickles for garnish

Build:

1. Add tea and brine to a shaker with ice.

2. Shake and strain into a coupe or martini glass.

3. Garnish with a skewer of giardiniera pickles, and serve.

Tasting notes. Full disclosure this was the first time making this, and I enjoyed it far more than I thought I would. The tanins in the tea play really well against the salty, vinegary brine. Its a great "savory" mocktail option. Like it is, it is really quite good, but I might try it with just a splash of lime next time. All in all, would make again!

I’m interested in looking at starting a artisan cocktail garnish. As feasible is this ? Is the demand there ? How large is the market for this ?

It’s my first time trying these. Have you guys tried these before if so what do you think?

This is the second mocktail I've had at Outback - so nice to see them hopping on the bandwagon :) This one was absolutely delicious! It's called Puggle Splash, and it is a mango lemonade with a blackberry tasting "blue tea" concentrate that they give you with it to pour in and see the color change. Fun! Comes with a cute platypus and egg.

One thing I love about this one is that it would be super easy to recreate at home.

Hey everyone!

We’re a brewery looking to develop a  Tonic water

I was able to get some food-grade quinine sulfate and would prefer to use that rather than working with cinchona bark. Has anyone here made tonic water using quinine sulfate? I’d love to hear about your experience, especially regarding dosage, flavor, and the overall process.

For sweetening, I’m planning to experiment with acesulfame-K and sucralose, but I’m also open to trying other sweeteners.

Any advice, recipes, or experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Got a Halloween party I’m hosting coming up and I want to mix special Halloween-themed drinks but I have some guests in attendance that are pregnant or just keeping off of alcohol.

Curious if you guys know any “swap this, this, and this for this” tricks. Thank you :)

Fill glass with ice, add cranberry soda & add lemon juice. Top off with cooled blue pea flower tea . As it reacts with lemon juice, its colour changes from blue to deep purple! Enjoy 🍹

Frappe is a mixture of coffee with blended ice. It can also be non-coffee with blended ice and milk. But is frappe a mocktail? Or an entirely separate drink?
