Taste the Rainbow this Pride Month

We all know that June is Pride Month and so, Laura from Team NonToxicated has collated a rainbow of drinks for you to serve at any of your summer events...in honour of Pride!


Let's Talk Red...


Red is an easy choice really - any alcohol Free Red Wine is going to cover your colour here.  Laura picked the Mood Fossile Fiorentino AF Red wine, that is now also Halal certified!


This is what brand partner ZeroZilch Zip have to say about it...


"An alcohol free Halal red wine which stands out for its fresh and balanced taste, enveloping and structured, thanks also to its two year ageing in oak and concrete barrels. Fossile Fiorentino is an intense red with garnet reflections. With hints of ripe red fruits, including cherry and blackberry and liquorice, accompanied by balsamic notes."

A Zest For Life?  Orange Is Up Next!


Our new brand partner Citizen Spritz is adding the orange to our rainbow with the Passionfruit flavour.  Mix with Soda, or if you wan't some more Mocktail-y, an AF Prosecco!


Citizen Spritz have hit the market with a bang and are excited to be reinventing adult drinks with their range of alcohol free instant spritz mixes. Carefully crafted with over 40 natural ingredients creating deliciously long, refreshing, spritz-style adult drinks.

Not So Mellow Yellow....


Cider is a simple, refreshing, and excellent choice for the yellow in our Pride rainbow.  Maiden Mill 'Voyage' Golden Medium Alcohol Free Cider (0.5% ABV) is the perfect choice to serve on a summer's afternoon, when only a cider will do. 


To grab it, head to our brand partner Wise Bartenders's Website here and don't forget to use your discount code  NONTOX5  at checkout!


Going Green!


Green was perhaps the hardest drink to select for the rainbow of drinks - it really lends itself more to Halloween themes and witchy cauldron vibes, but when we commit to an idea, we go for it, so taking a couple of liberties and using the packaging as our green colour we have Mude's Work. With it's apple flavour, deep ocean mineral salts and lightly refreshing bubbles, this one has gone down a treat at NonTox HQ!


To grab yourself some Work - or any of the other Mude flavours, head to the Mude Website here and don't forgot to use your NonTox discount code  NONTOX20  at checkout.


Bahama Blue?


This was another selection that needed some out of the box thinking.  There aren't many AF drinks that come naturally blue, so Laura picked an AF mocktail recipe, that not only works for our rainbow this month but also would be wonderful for beach themed gatherings, gender reveals and christenings!


Introducing......The Blue Shoe!


The main ingredient is a blue variety of Hawaiian punch called Polar Blast, which tastes like a blend of berry and orange flavours.  It’s usually available on Amazon, but you can also substitute Kool-Aid’s Ice Blue Raspberry Lemonade Drink Mix.


Or you can use any type of blue soda you can find. The ingredient that can be most hard to find is the white cranberry juice. But again Amazon is your friend here. White Cranberry juice helps to preserve the blue colour in your drink - normal cranberry juice will give you a stunning purple hue instead!


  • 3 ounces Polar Blast Hawaiian Punch
  • 2 ounces white cranberry juice
  • 7-Up / Sprite
  • (To offset the tartness, add some Simple Syrup)

Passion For Purple...


This one was a simple selection.  There is nothing better than a smoothie in the summer and this Blackberry Smoothie recipe from BBC Good Food is one of our Laura's go to slurps!


Here's what you need...


  • 10 frozen blackberries
  • ½ banana (or 1 small one), sliced
  • 1 ball of stem ginger, from a jar
  • 100ml pomegranate juice or red grape juice
  • ice
  • 1 thyme sprig and 1 frozen blackberry, to garnish


How to make it....


STEP 1

Put all of the ingredients, apart from the garnish, in a high-speed blender with a few small ice cubes, then blend until smooth and thick.

STEP 2

Pour the smoothie into a margarita glass or a tumbler and garnish with a thyme sprig and frozen blackberry.


Enjoy!


The Pinkest Drink


And last, but by no means least, we have the MYTH Coconut Raspberry Fizz⁠!!!

Here's what you need...


Double measure of MYTH Coconut (50ml)⁠
Raspberry Soda (100ml)⁠
Fresh Raspberries and Mint⁠
Grenadine Syrup⁠

METHOD

  • Prepare the garnish – thread fresh raspberries onto a sprig of fresh mint.
  • Pour a large measure of MYTH Coconut over a good quantity of ice.⁠
  • Top with 100ml of Raspberry Soda.⁠
