It’s that time of the year again when we are gearing up to celebrate Galentine’s Day, the holiday that celebrates the beauty of friendship.
So of course we have to do something fun!
Last year, we came up with a list of Galentine’s Day Gifts based on the 5 senses, and this year we wanted to share 5 cute mocktail recipes to have at your Galentine’s Day party or event.
If you were wondering if the “M” was a typo, it’s not! You read it correctly, we are toasting our besties with cute, aesthetic, non-alcoholic beverages this year.
A lot of people participate in what they call Dry January, where they take a break from the booze to reset for the new year; so why not keep the momentum going with these easy mocktail recipes for February?!
These cocktail-style, alcohol-free beverages will still give you all the feels of a fun, bubbly, and girly drink that you can enjoy without the hangover!
Check out these 5 Easy Mocktail Recipes to celebrate Galentine’s Day this year!
