Welcome to FabulousFusionFood's Non-alcoholic Cocktail Recipes Page — A cocktail is defined as: a mixed drink, usually alcoholic. Most commonly, a cocktail is a combination of one or more spirits mixed with other ingredients, such as juices, flavoured syrups, tonic water, shrubs, and bitters. This page presents mixed drinks of different types that are non-alcoholic in nature.

Non-alcoholic mixed drinks can variously be classified as: punches, which are drinks typically made in large volumes that contain fruit juice. Punches seem to have originated in India and gained world-wide popularity via England with the addition of Rum.


Mixed drinks without alcohol that resemble cocktails can be known as "zero-proof" or "virgin" cocktails, with 'virgin cocktails' typically being non-alcoholic versions of traditional cocktails. 'Mocktails' are often mixed drinks made without alcohol that are either designed to resemble alcoholic cocktails in terms of flavour and appearance; or, as is more common these days have their own unique and distinctive flavour profiles.

The Shirley Temple, pictured here, is often thought of as the classic non-alcoholic cocktail that can be served for summer evenings or in place of more traditional cocktails. A Shirley Temple is a non-alcoholic mixed drink traditionally made with ginger ale and a splash of grenadine, and garnished with a maraschino cherry. Modern Shirley Temple recipes may substitute lemon-lime soda or lemonade and sometimes orange juice, in part or in whole. Shirley Temples are often served as an alternative to alcoholic cocktails. It has been described as 'the Original Mocktail'.

The cocktail may have been invented by a bartender at Chasen's, a restaurant in West Hollywood, California, to serve then-child actress Shirley Temple. However, other claims to its origin have been made. Temple herself was not a fan of the drink saying:
The saccharine sweet, icky drink? Yes, well... those were created in the probably middle 1930s by the Brown Derby Restaurant in Hollywood and I had nothing to do with it. But, all over the world, I am served that. People think it's funny. I hate them. Too sweet!


The classic summer mocktail would be the soft or virgin sangria. Perhaps the most well known mocktail being the Virgin Mary.
