5 Mocktails To Get Your Through Dry January
Dry January is always a thing, a thing we hate. BRING ON THE BOOZE! But, here at Skinny Mixes, we are participating (for now). This task can be very difficult especially when your office has a full bar and all the cocktail mixes in the world. The truth is this can be tough for everyone so here are 5 mocktail recipes that are getting us by!

5. Buzzwords But No Buzz Lemon Elderflower Craft Mocktail

All you need is:

- Fresh Lemon & some sort of Greenery (for looks)
In a mason jar because all the drinks with strangely named flowers come in mason jars, add ice and water, start off with a tablespoon of Lemon Elderflower Syrup and build up the flavor as desired. Add whatever tree branches or fruit you can find in your house to make this Instagram worthy and viola!
