Thanksgiving Holiday Mocktails -
I’m planning out my Thanksgiving and thought it would be fun to include some Thanksgiving holiday mocktails for the festivities.
Normally, our drink of choice would be wine. But, this year things are a little different this year and I’m wanting to have a mocktail as my drink of choice.
Cranberries and sweet potatoes are two very popular things people eat for Thanksgiving.
A lot of our Thanksgiving holiday mocktails include these two side dish, but in more of a liquid form. Our Escape, non alcoholic, Sweet Potato Vodka is perfect for Thanksgiving holiday mocktails and mixers well with other drink ingredients.
Pomegranate Orange Moscow Mule
Grab a copper mug, add ice, fill it 3/4 full with our Escape Mocktails, non-alcoholic Moscow Mule mix. Then, add in a splash of pomegranate juice and orange juice.

Pomegranate Manhattan
Grab your favorite glass, fill it with a block of ice, add in 3/4 of our alcohol free Manhattan, add in a splash of pomegranate juice, add a few seeds (for an extra decoration) and top with a cherry.

Sweet Potato Vodka Mocktails
If you love sweet potatoes, our non alcoholic sweet potato vodka is your go to drink.
The non alcoholic sweet potato vodka can be enjoyed chilled, right out of the refrigerator, and poured into a shot glass. Or, mix the non alcoholic sweet potato vodka with other mixers like orange juice and cranberry juice for our Thankful Punch. If you are more of a gal who likes sweet potato pie, try our Sweet Potato Pie Mocktail served up in a mason jar which makes me feel like I need to sip this drink on the front porch after Thanksgiving dinner.

Thanksgiving Holiday Thoughts
I love cooking Thanksgiving dinner and have my favorites that I make each year.
Here they are:
Cornbread stuffing with sausage
Broccoli and creamed corn casserole
Fancy green bean casserole (roasted veggies, cream cheese, and sweet onion topping)
Our turkey tradition is smoking it in the smoker. It comes our so juicy! This year my sister has the honor of the turkey.
This year we continued our tradition of doing a thankful tree. It’s nice to share with my daughter things that we are thankful for.
I’m off to do some early Thanksgiving shopping at the Farmer’s Market today. Then back to the kitchen to make more mocktails.
