This gorgeous blood orange mocktail recipe is so simple to make and just divine to drink. Perfect for Christmas, New Year’s celebrations, or any special occasion when you want an elegant, refreshing non-alcoholic beverage. The beautiful crimson color from fresh blood orange juice paired with zesty lime and sparkling rosé creates a sophisticated drink that looks as stunning as it tastes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons blood orange juice, freshly squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice, freshly squeezed
  • 1 cup alcohol-free rosé (or substitute – see notes)
  • Ice for serving
  • 1 blood orange slice for garnish
  • Fresh herb sprig (rosemary, thyme, or mint) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glass: Fill a large wine glass with ice. Take a slice of blood orange and press it against the inside of the glass for extra flavor and visual appeal.
  2. Add the Juices: Pour in the freshly squeezed blood orange juice and lime juice.
  3. Top with Sparkling: Add the alcohol-free rosé (or your chosen alternative) and stir gently to combine.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with a fresh sprig of rosemary, thyme, or mint for an aromatic finish. Serve immediately while chilled and bubbly.

Notes

Substitution Options: You can replace the alcohol-free rosé with ginger beer or ginger ale for a spicier kick, though the final color will change. Another excellent option is lime sparkling water or regular soda water for a lighter, more refreshing taste. Fresh Juice Tips: For best results, use freshly squeezed blood orange juice when blood oranges are in season (typically December through April). Presentation: The beautiful crimson color makes this mocktail perfect for holiday entertaining and special occasions. Make-Ahead: Fresh juices can be squeezed up to 4 hours ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
