Get In The Holiday Spirit With Sierra Mixology! {Giveaway}

Now that we’ve tried Sierra Mist’s recipes for mocktails…now it’s my turn!

Did you ever decide if you were a Frost Bite or a Meet Me At The Mist-letoe?

Purely based on cravings of all things tart and sweet, I’ve decided to concoct this beauty.

Its favor is a good balance between sweet and sour. The perfect combination in my book! Plus with the antioxidants from the pomegranate juice and the nutrition from the garnishes, you won’t feel the least bit bad drinking the entire mocktail…or two! ๐Ÿ˜‰

What’s not to love about being able to eat your garnishes that have soaked up the delicious mocktail!?!?

Nothing…that’s what!

You can create your own cocktail or mocktail using Sierra Mist Natural too and share it on the Sierra Mist’s Facebook page!

Who knows, you could be famous! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  1. Sound yummy. Don’t have a fav recipe cause just starting to try these things. Love your site and inspiration! Thanks

  2. Haha I’m not sure if this is creative, but it’s the most unusual thing that I make. Take a 2 liter bottle of Mountain Dew and pour out some until it’s only as high at the top of the label. Add 1 packet of strawberry koolaid, and then refill the bottle with vodka. I don’t like mountain dew but it’s so tasty!

  3. hmmm… i don’t have a recipe for a mocktail but my fave cocktail is pineapple juice and malibu coconut rum with a splash of club soda and an orange slice to garnish,

  4. I am a non-drinker and I am loving these mocktail ideas! The only drink I have ever done (because I’m usually boring and stick to just water) but it is lime sherbert, sierra mist and grape juice. Its great on a hot day! I love your recipes but haven’t been brave enough to try any yet. :-s One day!

  5. This is technically my roommate’s recipe so hopefully she doesn’t get mad at me for posting it here. ๐Ÿ˜‰ She calls it the Tootsie Roll–one half rum & coke, one half amaretto sour. Mix each drink as you would normally, but fill glass halfway with one, then finish with half of the other. Stir to combine. It actually *does* taste surprisingly like a tootsie roll…even though it sounds disgusting, haha.

  6. The first picture is almost way too pretty to drink! Hmm most creative? I’ve made blueberry pom. margaritas. Super yummy and surprisingly strong but doesn’t taste it ๐Ÿ˜‰

  7. Wow. I just found your site, and it really stands out from all the other food blogs out there. I don’t drink alcohol, so I don’t know if this counts, but I like making an anise tea with anise, honey, and lemon.

  8. My favorite mocktail is one my husband created: 1.5 oz Roseโ€™s Mango Twist Mix, 2 oz lemonade, 8 oz lemon-lime soda. Stir to mix.

  9. I once made a vodka drink with heirloom tomatoes and basil. I can’t find quite the same recipe, but I have similar ones.

  10. My favorite cocktail is an apple fluff made with Smirnoff Fluffed Marshmallow Vodka, Smirnoff green apple vodka, and cranberry juice!

  11. I created a cocktail years ago that everyone called “the Lesley”–it’s just vanilla vodka and ginger ale. Made even better for the holidays with the Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale!

  12. Sweetest Torment:
    1 part light rum
    1 part triple sec
    1 part vodka
    1 part gin
    1 part midori
    1 part chambord
    splash of soda
    two cherries and a lime

    Use to make this in a tall glass when I worked as a bartender for the people that wanted one drink to knock them to the floor. Taste great but don’t drive after!
