Virgin Mary Mocktail

Bored of drinking sweet drinks all the time and need a change..then this is for you.This is one flavourful, spicy, savory, and salty drink that you will love to drink to cool down on a hot summer day. This is a nonalcoholic version of Bloody Mary and this can be enjoyed by everyone in the family including kids. The main ingredient in this mocktail is chilled Tomato juice. Tomatoes are a major dietary source of the antioxidant Lycopene and also a great source of Vitamin C, K, potassium, and folate.

Orange Spritzer

This refreshing pretty drink is the easiest way to give a twist to an ordinary glass of orange juice.

You can either use fresh orange juice from the orange fruit or store-bought orange juice Make sure it is 100% juice without any added sugars or preservatives and choose organic as much as possible. This is a perfect summery drink to be given to kids when they want to quench their thirst as an alternative to Soda. It not only hydrates but also provides Vitamin
