Dry January? Sober October? Or just because! This Non-Alcoholic Sangria Mocktail is what to drink when you’re not drinking. Infused with delicious fruit and topped off with Kombucha, you’re actually doing something good for yourself!

I created this delicious Sangria Mocktail while in Utah at a conference last fall. Personally, I don’t drink. But there’s so much more to having a cocktail thank consuming it.
It’s about the experience of it: the taste, the atmosphere, the temperature, the way the glass feels in your hand. It’s all very festive.
The issue I have with ordering ‘virgin drinks’ is they taste like over sugary fruit juice. A good mocktail has all the components of a cocktail with out the alcohol~ a good base, sour, sweet, and garnish.

Step Three: chill
- chill the mixture for 3-4 hours before serving.
- kick back, have a snack, you’ve worked hard, you deserve it. 😉
When you’re ready to enjoy it, you can garnish each glass with a few fresh cranberries or a wedge of grapefruit.
Variations of Sangria Mocktail
- Any fruit works with sangria. Try it with apples, oranges, lemon, strawberries, blueberries, pomegranate– the sky is the limit! Pick your favorites.
- You can use fruit juice instead of wine. Just know that the end result will be sweeter.
- In this recipe, I used pomegranate flavored kombucha. The kombucha here is acting as the sour or tart flavor. Most kombucha isn’t sweet, so pick a flavor you like, or just use plain.
- If you like a sparkling Sangria, leave the kombucha out of the pitcher, and instead add a splash or two to each glass. This will keep it nice and fizzy.
- You can use ginger ale, ginger beer, or citrus clear soda, in place of the kombucha. It will be a sweeter result (and not a healthy mocktail).
