ORANGE CRANBERRY MOCKTAIL
The holidays are coming, and with them come endless toasts, mulled wine, and “just one more” cocktail. But you don’t have to break your Sober October streak! Our Orange Cranberry Mocktail lets you sip with confidence through every festive gathering. Bursting with immune-boosting vitamin C from oranges and cranberries (plus antioxidants, fiber, and urinary tract support from the berries), and topped with anti-inflammatory rosemary, this mocktail is as healing as it is beautiful. Bring a pitcher to Friendsgivings, work potlucks, or cozy nights in—everyone will ask for the recipe!
