Your summer mocktail is the watermelon nojito! Beyond enjoying refreshing, mild tastes, you likely take pleasure in embracing your femininity through your colorful wardrobe and even more colorful diet. Since you hover on the line between introvert and extrovert, this summer you can be found both losing yourself in a book and surrounded by friends at your favorite outdoor restaurant. 

To make this delicious drink, you’ll need watermelon, mint leaves, sparkling lime water, fresh lime juice, and maple simple syrup. (You can also opt for a substitute like maple syrup, honey, or regular simple syrup if you don’t have the cooking patience to whip up home-made maple simple syrup.) Simply blend the watermelon, mint, and lime juice until even, strain to extract any pulp, add your syrup and sparkling water, pour over ice, and garnish with additional mint if desired.

Your summer mocktail is the hibiscus kombucha “margarita.” You’re a true nature-lover and see no reason why anyone should spend a second of a gorgeous summer day indoors. On an average day, you can be found soaking in the beauty around you and making the world a better place through your generous spirit and creative mind. 

Interested in learning how to make the mocktail that embodies you? You’ll need ginger kombucha, hibiscus simple syrup, lime juice, cilantro, salt for the rim (optional), and a lime wedge (optional). In a shaker, add your lime juice, kombucha, syrup, and finely chopped cilantro with some ice. Once thoroughly shaken, dress your glass with salt, pour over ice, and garnish with a lime wedge.

Your go-to mocktail this summer should be peach iced tea. Like yourself, this classic drink is welcome on any occasion and is always a crowd pleaser! You’re likely someone who enjoys the simple things in life, sees the good in everyone, and has strong relationships. You also probably have a bit of a sweet tooth. 

If you’re going for super easy, this mocktail barely even requires any prep! You could simply brew peach tea and put it in the fridge until you’re ready to sip on it. But if you want an elevated peach iced tea, add your tea, simple syrup, lemon juice, sparkling water, and ice to a glass and enjoy. You can also substitute peach tea with raspberry, passionfruit, blueberry, and many other flavors.

You need to be drinking cider tonics all summer long. You’re likely someone who has a big personality and loves to entertain. Your confidence and originality are what others admire most about you. As somewhat of a thrill-seeker, you’re adventurous in your hobbies, style, and taste preferences, which is why a bitter cider tonic is a perfect drink of choice. 

In order to make the best cider tonic mocktail, you’ll need fresh apple cider, lemon juice, thyme syrup, tonic water, and a thyme sprig or lemon twist for garnish. Add everything except the tonic water to a pitcher and stir until mixed, then pour into a glass, top with tonic water, and add your optional garnish.

You should be sipping on sparkling limeade all summer long. You’re likely someone who leans introverted, appreciates independence, and cares deeply about your health – you eat clean, rarely skip Pilates, and have a 7-step skincare routine. But while you may need your coveted alone time to recharge, you’re also a fiercely loyal friend and lover. 

This drink is timeless – refreshing, healthy, and simple to make! You’ll only need a few ingredients before you’re on your way to a delicious drink. Grab about 5-6 limes, club soda, ice cubes, and a handful of mint. Juice the limes, then mix in mint and muddle until desired texture, add club soda and top off with ice and mint for garnish. If this limeade isn’t exciting enough for you, check out this strawberry limeade or raspberry limeade recipe too!

Your summer mocktail should be a spicy jalapeño mule because, like this drink, you're both sweet and spicy. At your core, you’re a people person who highly values making other’s lives around you better. You’re generous, witty, and always looking for a fun time. “Hostess” may as well be your middle name because you live for opening up your home to friends and definitely don’t hate being the center of attention.

This mocktail tastes complex and elevated but is truly very easy to make. You’ll need ginger beer, lime juice, agave nectar, jalapeño slices, and crushed ice. Simply add ice to a copper cup, add the remaining ingredients, and voilà, you have your mocktail of the summer. Enjoy!
