All the beautiful cocktails are saved for the adults while we’re stuck at the kids table drinking soda that came from a cooler. Its about time someone served up a big pitcher of a beautiful non-alcoholic sangria or a bubbly spritzer for those of us who are not 21. The following is a list of some amazing, eye-catching and delicious beverages that are non alcoholic or can even be adapted to become an alcoholic drink (just click on the title to view the recipe).

Just because we cant drink that doesn’t mean we can’t have our own fruity and festive beverages! Any of these recipes can be adapted to have alcohol in them as well, that way both the adults and people under 21 can enjoy the same drink. Try serving anyone of these beverages at your next cookout, birthday or family event to assure that people of all ages have something delicious to sip on.
