Signature Cocktail Inspiration: Berry Lemon Sparkler Mocktail

These delicious non-alcoholic beverage is a fantastic alternative for those who are having a dry reception or as an option for to include the pregnant woman and children in the festivities:

1 1/2 pints raspberries or blackberries, plus more for garnish
1 1/3 cups sugar
2 cups lemon juice (from 8 lemons)
Ice
Seltzer
Mint sprigs, for garnish

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, mash the 1 1/2 pints berries with the sugar; let stand for 10 minutes.
2. Stir in 1/2 cup water, then strain into a large pitcher, pressing with a spoon to extract any juice. Stir in the lemon juice and 2 1/2 cups more water.
3. Fill 8 pint glasses halfway with ice. Pour about 3/4 cup berry-lemon mixture into each glass, top with a splash of seltzer and stir to combine. Garnish with berries and a mint sprig.

Serves 8.

Enjoy Ladies!

I don't know what I will use this for...but they will be made sometime in the future! :-)

Now that I work in a restaurant (which I freakin' love) we have a specialty cocktail that looks identical to this with raspberries and blackberries... every time someone orders it I watch them make it I secretly which I was ordering it!

(those slices of orange aren't supposed to be there lol!)

Love this no alcohol great.

Yum!!  I love fruity pretty drinks...alcohol or not

That sounds so good :o) thank you
