Strawberry Orange “Mocktail”

Summer is coming! A refreshing drink on the patio is something I really enjoy.

It doesn’t always need to have alcohol in it though. ”Mocktails” or beverages that imitate cocktails but don’t contain any alcohol have become a huge trend, especially for those seeking healthier, more natural beverages - without adding additional toxins to our system.
