As refreshing and flavourful as a cocktail, mocktails – their zero-proof counterparts – are definitely having a moment. Once upon a time, mocktails were limited to soda water, seltzer, or juice. Now, as more and more non-alcoholic options hit the market, the door has burst wide open! Creative additions include botanical ingredients like fresh herbs, edible florals, and spices to take mocktails to the next level. Flavour profiles range from sweet to sour to spicy and even savoury! At Farm Boy, you’ll discover alcohol-free beers, wines, and more to add excitement to your shopping trip.
This Mother’s Day, we created five delicious zero-proof beverages to celebrate all the mothers and mother figures. Fresh in flavour and big on taste, they’re made with five ingredients or less — easy enough for even the most inexperienced mixologist! Keep these simple recipes in your pocket for the next time you want to whip up a delicious drink without the buzz.
Naturally sweet and totally refreshing, this mocktail leans on pear and orange blossom for a bright, unexpected burst of juicy flavour. Ideal for any season, it’s an easy beverage you can whip up for a Mother’s Day brunch in just a few minutes. (Want to increase the “wow” factor? Add a sprinkle of edible glitter before serving.)

Synonymous with warm weather, a shandy – a classic British drink made with half lemonade and half beer – is a low ABV beverage.
