10 Lighter From-scratch Clean Cocktails
10 Lighter From-scratch Clean Cocktails. A satisfying list of lighter, from-scratch, and clean cocktail and mocktail recipes.
We have been loving making our own cocktails lately.
They taste great, they don’t have added sugar or chemicals in them, and it’s fun to do!
At the beginning of these strange quarantine times, we noticed that our baking recipes were our most popular recipes.
Then 7 weeks later, we noticed that our drink recipes were our most popular. In particular our cocktail recipes.
It’s funny because during this time, we found that our interest in cocktail recipes increased as well, so we figured why not put together a list of lighter clean from-scratch cocktail recipes to make it easier for people to find.
1. Dairy- Free White Russian
A creamy and satisfying cocktail made with coffee liqueur, vodka, coconut cream and almond milk. These taste better than the dairy-version, if you ask us.
2. Paleo Watermelon Margaritas from Mary’s Whole Life
Incredibly refreshing margaritas made with lime juice AND watermelon juice, and sweetened with agave syrup.
3. Lighter From-scratch Strawberry Daiquiris
A clean strawberry daiquiris cocktail recipe made with natural simple ingredients. Strawberries, lemon juice, and lime juice are the stars of the show here!
4. Cucumber Lemonade Vodka Cocktail by the Clean Eating Couple
Lighter low sugar cocktails that are refreshing from the cucumbers and tangy from the lemons.
5. Raspberry Lime Mocktail Spritzer by Ana Ankeny
A satisfying mocktail drink that has 4 simple ingredients and that can easily be turned into a cocktail with your choice of liquor.
6. All Natural Piña Coladas
An all natural, clean version of the pina colada cocktail made with the simple ingredients of coconut cream, frozen pineapple, pineapple juice, rum, and maple syrup. This drink can easily be made alcohol free as well!
7. Skinny No-Hangover Cocktail by Tastes Lovely
When you are looking for a simple low calorie option, try this Skinny No Hangover Cocktail made with 3 ingredients.
8. Blackberry Basil Mocktail by Thyme and Joy
This mocktail drink has such great tart and sweet flavors… from blackberry to basil to lime. It can easily be made with alcohol as well.
9. Skinny Paloma by Eating Bird Food
A lightened up skinny Paloma made with fresh grapefruit juice, tequila and lime juice. Yum!
10. From-scratch Clean Irish Cream Liqueur
A satisfying, healthier, cleaner, dairy-free version of Bailey’s Irish Cream. We drink this neat in a cup with ice, which is why we added it to the cocktail list. But this can also be added to your coffee or other cocktail of choice.
