Cheers to a dry spring with this non-alcoholic take on a Moscow Mule

A fresh, bright, gingery mocktail using non-alcholic wine

With spring in the air, you might be looking for a lighter, non-alcoholic option for a refreshing drink to enjoy. If that’s the case then we have a couple of mocktail recipes for you courtesy of Libby Non-Alcoholic Wine, including a zingy and gingery taken on the Moscow Mule. While that drink typically involves vodka and ginger beer, this version calls for fresh ginger juice which is sharper and more flavorful than packaged options, including adding some extra punch through the use of black pepper and texture achieved with chia seeds. That’s added to a base of non-alcoholic wine for fizz and sharpness, creating a grown-up ginger drink that has all the flavor of a Mule but without the alcohol.
