7Mulled “Wine”

Mulled wine, warming and not-too-sweet, is a classic and homey drink to sip on a cold December day. If you’re skipping the alcohol you can simply use a non-alcoholic red wine — or you can use a combination of dark red juices, such as cherry, pomegranate, and craberry. 4 cups of juice will replace the wine — and you can skip the sugar.

8Jingle Juice Punch

Punch is a great party drink! Guests can serve themselves, freeing you up to mingle.

To make a non-alcoholic version of this, swap the rum for 2 more cups of cranberry juice, then use a sparkling cider, such as Martinelli’s, in place of the wine.

Why overthink things? Instead of worrying about fixing up some kind of cocktail, just get a bottle or two alcohol-free wine. That way everyone can enjoy the same kind of drink.

This red blend of Tempranillo and Syrah grapes is aged for nine months and is highly recommended as one of the best-tasting nonalcoholic wines.

12Cranberry Mulled White “Wine”

A hot mulled drink is a holiday treasure. Though this calls for dry white, there are three options, all equally good. First, you can use a nonalcoholic white. If that’s not available, white grape juice will work—though, because it’s sweet already, you can skip the honey (or taste it, while cooking, and add just a little back in for flavor). Finally, you can use a chai tea, which will pair well with the flavors here.
