Best Non-Alcoholic Thanksgiving Drinks

Thanksgiving is a, well, challenging holiday. While it can spark feelings of joy, excitement, and togetherness, it also sparks quite a bit of fear into the hearts of hosts everywhere. Because Thanksgiving is the only holiday that is truly centered around one single thing: the food.

 

If you’re hosting a gathering this year (or if you just want to be a thoughtful guest that brings something delicious to the party), it’s never too early to start thinking about the Thanksgiving drinks. Because for all the attention that the turkey and stuffing receive, we all know that a great holiday gathering starts by pouring something tasty into the glass of your guests.

 

But what about those guests that don’t drink alcohol? Whether they’re part of the 30% of adults that don’t consume alcohol at all, or the 60% of drinkers looking to cut back on consumption, no Thanksgiving dinner is complete without at least a couple of non-alcoholic drinks.

 

Not sure where to start? Thankfully, we’ve got you covered with our list of delicious non-alcoholic Thanksgiving drinks.
