Shake It Up—No Booze Needed!

At Bootblack Brand, we believe every great cocktail deserves a delicious alter ego—and turning your favorite drink into a mocktail is easier (and tastier) than you think.

Start with your go-to recipe. Ditch the alcohol, but keep the fun! Vodka or gin in your drink? Swap in sparkling water, tonic, or one of those fancy zero-proof spirits. For whiskey or rum cocktails, try chilled black tea, apple cider, or ginger beer to keep that bold flavor alive.

Now, let’s talk balance. Sweet, sour, and spice still need to play nicely together. Sometimes removing the alcohol softens things, so give it a little boost—maybe an extra squeeze of citrus or a dash more syrup to make the flavors sing.

And don’t forget the flair! Celery stalk, a citrus twist, or a sugared rim turn your mocktail from “just juice” to a showstopper.

Try This: The Bright Eyes Cocktail and/or Mocktail
Our favorite way to sip sunshine—no spirits required.

• 2 oz Bootblack Brand Jalapeño Margarita Mixer

• 1 oz mango juice

• 1 oz carrot juice

• 2 oz tequila

• Garnish with a lime wheel

Making it non-alc - sub out the tequila with celery juice and garnish with a lime wheel or a celery stalk!  

Both are bright, earthy, and packed with zesty jalapeño heat. The kind of drink that wakes up your taste buds.

So go ahead—mix it up, sip it slow, and savor all the flavor with none of the fuss. Because at Bootblack Brand, we make sure everyone gets to raise a glass.
