I love a fun holiday celebration, but I don't love the day after hangover! These winter mocktails are festive ways you can join in with all the cheers and still face your family at 6 am the next day.
There was a thing about a decade ago, when I was younger, single and child free every other weekend. My neighborhood friends called it the "Deanne pour".
Wine conniseurs would have snubbed my bigger than life red wine pours, but boy did I have fun sharing the wine love.
One marriage and now with four kids, the Deanne pour has been corked and tucked away as a fun memory of my younger days.
These days, the little people in our household wake up at six am, ready to party all day long!!
So mocktails for me, it is. Winter mocktails, apple cider punch, and Thanksgiving punch...I like 'em all and they're alcohol-free!
