Pomegranate Christmas Mocktail Drink

Merry Christmas and a Happy Always!

With the holidays coming up, more alcohol will be drunken to the expense of children’s happiness. If you have followed me for a while, then you know I don’t drink alcohol and in today’s post I want to encourage you to pick alcohol free too. This warm Pomegranate Christmas drink is super simple to make, so suiting to drink in these Christmas times, and a great alcohol free option. Try it out! It kinda reminds a bit of mulled wine, but still not, since it’s based on pomegranate juice and not wine, but it’s very festive and I like it!
