If you are looking for alcohol free drinks to ring in the New Year with tonight, here are a couple of refreshing and fun beverages you and your kids will love. My husband and I choose not to drink alcohol, so I wanted to get a little more creative than the boring traditional Sparkling Apple Cider
The secret to both of these drinks is using scoops of frozen limeade concentrate. It makes them slushy and gives them a refreshing kick of lime flavor.
You knew one would include Diet Coke right? It’s like my water. And it’s even better with lime.
Sparkling Coke ‘n’ Lime
Ginger Lime Sparkler…
And it’s even better with a splash of Cherry Grenadine…
New Year’s Eve Frozen Limeade Sparklers {non-alcoholic}
Ingredients
1 can frozen limeade
ice cold diet coke
ice cold ginger soda or ginger ale (ginger soda has more of a vanilla flavor, that’s what I use)
Cherry Granadine, optional
Directions
Fill your glass with your choice of soda and add a scoop or two of frozen lime concentrate. Add a splash of Cherry Grenadine. Serve immediately!
I hope you all have a wonderful New Year’s Eve! My husband proposed 3 years ago today making it even more special for us! We’ll be celebrating with the in-laws and their crazy, fun friends, playing hours and hours of Mexican Train Dominoes.

Diet Coke and lime? Yes please. I am going to have to recommend that to the family…although I can see them trying to morph it into some sort of diet dr pepper drink. We may or may not be addicts. Happy New Years!
