How to Go Green: Cocktails


There is something about sipping on a cocktail surrounded by friends that makes a party feel special. It doesn't matter what the time of year, whether you are getting into the holiday spirit, or sitting on a dock by a lake. Anybody can uncork some wine or crack open a beer, but serving a cocktail takes some thought and imagination. Choosing the perfect cocktail to serve is a great way to set the mood of the party.

Cocktails: Going green

It also takes a bit of ingenuity and legwork to make those cocktails green. There are a growing number of distilleries making organic spirits around the world, but crafting organic vodka, gin, whiskey and such is still the exception, and not the norm. They are often made in small batches and many are imported, both of which can make for an elevated price that not everyone can afford.

Making green cocktails

Still, if you can find organic alcohol in your local liquor store, that's great, and you’re well on your way to a greener cocktail. But the alcohol base isn't the only thing about cocktails that can be green. We'll help you with lots of other ways to green your drinks, from booze to shaker and everything in between. Read on to learn how to make your cocktails tasty and green.
