Are Mocktails Healthy?

They can be! It depends on what’s in your glass. Many bottled mocktails and restaurant versions are basically soda, with as much sugar as the cocktails they’re replacing. Not to mention, just as pricey!

A healthy mocktail keeps added sugar low and gets its flavor from fresh fruit, herbs, spices, tea, and plenty of bubbles.

Here’s what to look for:

• Little to no added sugar.
• Real fruit, herbs, and spices for flavor, plus a bonus dose of polyphenols.
• A gut health boost when possible, like kombucha or water kefir.

What about weight loss? Swapping a cocktail for a low-sugar mocktail can save a surprising number of calories, since alcohol has 7 calories per gram before you even add mixers. The lightest picks on this list are the Lavender Mint Iced Tea, the infused waters, and the DIY Sparkling Water Bar.
