5 Fun, Booze-free Mocktails for Summer: No-jitos, Tea Coolers & Spicy Kombucha Fizz


Ready to flirt with flavour without the fuzzy head? These five mocktails are your new party-plus-one: loud, bright and absolutely not here to be ‘just juice’.

There’s a Pineapple No-jito that tastes like a tropical high-five, a Peach and Jasmine Tea Cooler that’s basically a spa day in a glass and a Kombucha Chilli dazzler with enough fizz-and-fire to raise an eyebrow. 

Then passionfruit meets salted caramel in a sweet-salty swirl of trouble and a Lime Pop snaps everything back to zingy innocence. No shaker skills required. Grab a glass, cue the playlist and let taste buds do the dancing tonight.

Bright pineapple juice muddles with mint and a sly splash of lime, echoing mojito vibes without the booze. Crackling soda lifts the sweetness, while crushed ice keeps everything sharp and beachy. It smells like sunshine, tastes like a tropical high-five and finishes refreshingly green for pool days and late lunches.

Velvety peach nectar slips into chilled jasmine tea, perfuming the air with soft petals and stone fruit. A hint of lemon brightens, honey rounds and plenty of ice turns it crystalline. It’s delicate yet juicy, like sipping an orchard breeze through a bouquet on a warm afternoon, by the glass.

Tart kombucha fizzes over ice, carrying apple-cider bite and funky tea depth. A thin chilli syrup threads heat through the bubbles, waking the tongue without overwhelming it. Lime zest snaps everything into focus. The drink feels alive: sour, spicy, slightly sweet and ridiculously refreshing, with a slow burn that beckons.

Tangy passionfruit pulp glows gold against a ribbon of salted caramel, swirling like sunset in a milkshake. First sip hits bright and tropical, then melts into buttery sweetness with a savoury edge. Ice keeps it plush, while a pinch of sea salt makes the fruit pop, lingering luxuriously at all.

This lime pop is pure sparkle: sharp lime juice shaken hard, then topped with lemon-lime soda and a blizzard of ice. It snaps like a fresh citrus peel, sweetened just enough to grin. A salt rim and mint sprig add lift, leaving your mouth clean, bright, and buzzing all afternoon long.
