A lot of social situations puts the non-drinkers into weird situations.  "Why aren't you drinking?  Here have a shot."  Again, a lot of non-drinkers still want to go out and have some fun but they don't want to be faced with the incessant questions about why they aren't drinking or hearing "one won't hurt you".  Many people opt not to drink for many reasons.  That's why it's great to hear about places in Amarillo that offer up mocktails.

What is a Mocktail?

The dictionary definition of a mocktail is:

A nonalcoholic drink consisting of a mixture of fruit juices or other soft drinks.

It's a type of drink that is mixed up like an alcoholic drink and looks like an alcoholic drink but is non-alcoholic.

Mocktails are great because they allow you to enjoy a fun drink without the effects of alcohol.  Just think, being a designated driver now doesn't mean you have to drink Coke and water all night.  You have to have your mocktail and fit in with the rest of your crew.

Non-Alcoholic drinks have now gotten a facelift.  Gone are the days of ordering a Pineapple coconut slushie, a non-alcoholic pina colada.  Or a Bloody Mary without the vodka, just making it spicy tomato juice.   I guess the days of Shirley Temples have also gone by the wayside.

Go out and party with your crew and drink up knowing that you're staying sober and still having fun.
