Small Tips That Make a Big Difference

I have been making these drinks for a long time. These tips come from my own mistakes. Tip one. Use cold juice. Keep the juice in the fridge. Cold juice means less ice melts. Less melting means your drink does not become watery.

Tip two. Do not put too much ice. Half the glass is enough. Too much ice makes the drink weak. Tip three. Taste before you serve. Maybe you want more sweet. Maybe you want more sour. Fix it. Tip four. Use a nice glass. The same drink tastes better in a fancy glass. It is a mind thing. But it works. Tip five. Put fruit on the edge. A lemon slice. An orange slice. A strawberry. It takes two seconds. But it looks like you worked hard. Tip six. For parties, make a big jug. Mix everything except soda water and ice. Keep it in the fridge. When guests come, add ice and soda water in each glass. Then pour the mixture. Very easy.

Common Questions

People ask me these questions again and again.

Can I use normal grape juice? Yes. Normal grape juice works very well.
What if I do not have soda water? Use normal water. Or use sparkling water. Or use lemonade.
How long can I keep these drinks? Make and drink immediately. Do not keep for later. The fizz goes away.
Can children drink these? Yes. No alcohol at all. Completely safe.
Are these drinks sugar free? No. Grape juice has sugar. Honey has sugar. But you can use less sugar. Or use stevia.

How to Serve These Drinks to Guests?

You made the drink. Now you want to give it to guests. Here is how.
Clean the glass properly. No spots.
Put the glass on a small plate.
Add a paper straw. A coloured straw looks nice.
Put a small piece of fruit on the glass edge.
Put one mint leaf on top of the drink.
Hold the glass from the bottom when you give it.
Say the name of the drink. Your special berry mocktail. Sounds fancy.
These small things take one minute. But your guests will feel special.

A Note About Indian Kitchens

I wrote these recipes for Indian kitchens. Why? Because many recipe websites use things we do not have.

They ask for elderflower syrup. We do not have that.
They ask for agave nectar. We do not have that.
They ask for special grapes. We have normal grapes.

I used things you can find anywhere in India. Grape juice is everywhere. Mint is everywhere. Ginger is everywhere. Lemon is everywhere. Rose syrup is everywhere. Even if you live in a small town, you can make these drinks. Go to the local fruit shop. Get grapes. Get lemons. Get mint. Go to the general store. Get soda water. That is all.
