Mermaid Water Mocktail Recipe

As with most non-alcoholic cocktails your best friend is Monin syrups. Their most popular syrup is the Blue Curacao syrup, often cheekily used in bars instead of Blue Curacao Liqueur – So if making a Mermaid Water mocktail you can do the same. Monin also do many other flavors, and a coconut syrup is a great one to replace the coconut rum with.

Now for the spiced rum. This isn’t easy to replace with normal ingredients around your home bar, but a company called Arkay Beverages make many great alcohol-free drinks, and a spiced rum is one such drink.

As all Curacao tastes the same you can use any color to create a different looking drink but with the same great taste.
