Tips and Pregnancy Mocktails to Order at a Bar
How Do You Ask For a Mocktail?
If you’re wondering how to order mocktails, it’s actually super easy!
You can always ask for any drink on a bar’s menu without alcohol. If they aren’t able to do it for some reason, they’ll let you know!
If you want to order a different mocktail (like one on the list below), simply tell your server or bartender what you’re looking for and, if they need it, read off the ingredients!
Are Mocktails Safe During Pregnancy?
Mocktails are definitely safe during pregnancy since there is no alcohol in them! š Of course, you want to watch your sugar intake while pregnant, so beware of ordering some of the traditional bar-menu mocktails, which are typically loaded with sugar.
The list below is full of lower-sugarĀ mocktails to order at a restaurant or bar.
