Mocktails for kids

Having a New Year's Eve Party?

Fancy drinks all around?

But, what about the kids?

Both of my kids are old enough to stay up till the ball drops so I thought they'd like to have a fancy drink as well.

Here are a few mocktails for kids. Be creative, rim the glass with some Pop Rocks or Pixi Sticks, freeze gummi worms for ice cubes.

Use your imagination!
