Put the same effort into a mocktail as you would in a cocktail. Here are some suggestions: 1. Presentation matters. Enjoy the drink in a beautiful glass and add festive garnishes. 2. Use quality ingredients. Go for fresh or frozen main ingredients instead of canned as much as you can. It does make a difference. 3. Balance the sweet flavors. 4. Enjoy it chilled and make it on the spot if possible.
