The alcohol-free cocktails, smoothies, and bubblers on these pages are tailor made for youngsters, nondrinkers, and designated drivers. All of the fruit-based drinks—which in a few cases come close to passing for the real thing—not only taste good but will also give you a healthful shot in the arm. What’s more, there is no shortage of variety. The nectar-based Angelic Peach is light as a cloud compared to the soy milk– and peanut butter–based Muscle Shirt Smoothie.
All of the recipes are the sort you might want to triple or quadruple so that you can keep them in the fridge for the family. But you’ll be wise to make short work of any drinks that include carbonated beverages, which sometimes lose their sparkle even before you can toast “To Your Health!”
