Christmas may be a time for mulled wine and cocktails for some but if you don’t drink (like me) or are temporarily having to stick to the non alcoholic beverages, due to pregnancy or being the designated driver then why not try this non alcoholic alternative cherry mulled mocktail. This would work well for Christmas parties or entertaining at home and is great if you enjoy fruity flavours.
Continuing from the celebration of festive spirits, our cherry mulled mocktail is a delightful concoction that brings the warmth and aroma of traditional mulled wine without the alcohol. Infused with rich cherry juice, a hint of cinnamon, and a mix of fragrant spices, this mocktail is perfect for sipping by the fireplace. It’s a cozy and inclusive option that ensures everyone gets to raise a glass of cheer. For those who appreciate variety or are planning a larger gathering, consider pairing this with a refreshing non alcoholic Christmas punch. Both drinks are sure to keep the merry in your Christmas without the alcohol!

Ooo, I’d love to try this recipe! I’m not from the UK, so I don’t have access to Cherry Good. What would the American equivalent be, do you know? Thank you!
