Non-Alcoholic Fall Mocktail Recipes

1. Golden Butterbeer

Ingredients

*Coconut Whipped Cream - extras can be stored in the fridge*
● 1, 14 ounce can coconut cream or full fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
● 1/4 - 3/4 cup powdered sugar
● 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Butterbeer
● 1 Grüvi Golden Lager
● 1/3 cup coconut or brown sugar
● 1 tablespoon butter or vegan butter
● 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut milk
● 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Make your coconut cream. Remove the coconut cream from the ridge without shaking the can. Open the can and scrape out the thickened cream and leave the liquid behind to use for the butter beer. Add the cream to a large mixing bowl and beat until creamy, about 30 seconds. Add the vanilla and sifted powdered sugar and mix until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Avoid over-whipping to avoid separation. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed. Use the desired amount to top your butterbeer, and then store leftovers in the fridge for 1-2 weeks - it will harden in the fridge as it chills.

2. Make your butterbeer. Add sugar into a saucepan over low heat and don’t touch it. When the sugar granules start to move to melt slightly, start stirring it until you get a liquid caramel that is rather clear. Watch it closely to not allow the color to get to a dark amber or brown otherwise the caramel will be too bitter.

3. Remove your pan from the heat and while stirring add your butter, coconut milk, and vanilla. Continue stirring.

4. Next, stir in the can of Golden. If you feel that the caramel is starting to stick, put the pan back on low heat. Once you have a well mixed and smooth mixture that is golden, pour into your mugs.

5. Once it cools down a bit, top with whipped coconut cream and a sprinkle of
cinnamon. Enjoy!

2. Fall Sangria

Ingredients

● 1 orange, thinly sliced
● 2 apples, cubed
● 1/4 cup fresh pomegranate seeds
● 2 cups fresh apple cider
● 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
● 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
● 2 cinnamon sticks
● 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
● 4 Grüvi Dry Seccos
● Ice, for serving
● Extra fruit, for garnish

Instructions

1. Cut up the orange and apples and place in a large pitcher. Add in the pomegranate seeds and muddle or crush with a wooden spoon.
2. Add in the fresh apple cider, followed by the honey, ginger and cinnamon. Give everything a good stir.
3. Let the mixture sit for at least an hour in the fridge (or more) to allow the spices to infuse into the cider.
4. Right before serving, add in the Grüvi Proseccos to the pitcher.

3. Blood Orange & Sage Mocktail

Ingredients

2. Slice the lime into wedges and squeeze one wedge into the glass, then top with Grüvi Rosé.
3. Slice the other half of the orange into thin pieces, and place on top of the rosé.
4. Take a sage leaf and clap it between your palms- it helps release the natural oils of the herb! Place each leaf on top of your drink for garnish.

7. Pumpkin Patch

This recipe is a thick pumpkin pie drink, and pairs amazingly with ice cream or whipped cream. You can use cream soda, but we tried it with our prosecco and a touch of vanilla instead and it turned out great.
