Pomegranate Cranberry Mocktail
Here’s a sparkling Pomegranate Cranberry Mocktail that is perfect for a winter non-alcoholic beverage. This bubbly drink is easy to make and has no added sugar. It’s healthy, festive, and tasty.
Mocktails are simply cocktails without the alcohol. These types of drinks have gotten more popular as people avoid alcohol for various reasons.
This refreshing version is made using a blend of pomegranate juice, cranberry juice, orange juice, and ginger kombucha, with no added sugars.
Key Ingredients
- Pomegranate juice is full of antioxidants and a gorgeous red color. Be sure to use 100% pomegranate juice with no added sugars. Or, make your own from a whole pomegranate that you juice. I also love using pom juice to make my healthy gummy bears.
- Freshly-squeezed orange juice adds natural sweetness and lots of vitamin C to this holiday beverage. You can either make your own juice or buy a minimally processed version. I like to make Vitamix Orange Juice!
- Ginger kombucha adds natural carbonation to the mocktail and a light ginger flavor. The fizzy texture of the drink makes it feel more festive and special. Kombucha is one of those foods with natural probiotics too! Look for it in the refrigerated drink section at the grocery store.
