This is the book we need; it's just lovely. Sometimes it's just nice to not have alcohol and this book delivers. I particularly liked the week thirty two espesso-tini and week forty- tumeric lemon pop. There were very few recipes that did not strike my fancy. I look forward to making more of these. The recipes are easy to make and your local liquor store probably has a non-alcoholic section where you can get zero proof liquors.

I was pleasantly surprised with this book! I honestly thought it was going to be a regular cocktail recipe without the liquor! I had no idea there were so many 0% proof “alcohols” available! Terrific when you want a drink but not the after.

I like the easy-to-follow instructions and the fact that is natural ingredients, this is book I think I would buy to add to my bar cart. The cover makes it appealing so are the pictures. Very well done. also feel like these can be made without alcoh

Recipes for a different mocktail every week.

Get out your wallets because mocktails are expensive (chuckle) - I had no clue. When I went to buy some of the non-alcoholic beverages Jennifer Newens has in the recipes, the average price was about $35 a bottle. So my recommendation would be to look through all of the recipes as I did, tag the ones you want to try, and check which ones have a base of the same alcohol. Then there will be the cost of the add-ons (whatever flavors the zero-proof alcohol).

Alyson Brown does an amazing job of photographing these drinks. I can guarantee you when I make them, they don’t come out as the pics (chuckle). The photos are gorgeous, and they make you wish you could just reach through the pages and drink it.

Newens has all of the mainstream drinks here. You can make anyone’s drink a virgin thanks to this cookbook. If you don’t have a bar setup, then you will have a pricey investment, especially if you haven’t tried most of the drinks here and want to play. Before this cookbook, I had only ever had a virgin strawberry daiquiri. I wanted to explore the mocktail world because I don’t believe in drinking and driving, and this seemed to be a fun way to have people over and not worry about them driving home.

I now have a plethora of mocktails to offer people. I even threw a mocktail party to have others taste the drinks. Unfortunately, it was only a couple because as I said in the first paragraph…$$$ investment. I can’t wait to try more.

This was a fun book to read and see other creative ways to make tasty drinks without the alcohol! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this book! Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this wonderful book. I always want to be included when everyone is serving their drinks but I felt left out. This book was so fun to discover so many non-alcoholic drinks that can be created easily. With easy to follow recipes that include all ingredients and easy to understand directions. The photography was perfect and had my interest. I was able to find some of my favorites like the Irish Coffee, Strawberry Shrub Mocktail and the Espresso Tini. I can’t wait to try them all. There is something for everyone. Perfect to use at events in your home to celebrate. Enjoy this adventure.

I love a great cocktail and it’s even better if the recipe can be used without alcohol. These recipes are delicious and the pictures are beautiful. Can’t wait to try more of these recipes. Thank you for the early copy of Monday Night Mocktails.

Sometimes if you are not a drinker you feel a bit left out at dinner parties or when out to dinner with friends. Maybe you have health problems so you can’t drink alcohol, whatever the reason you or someone you know probably doesn’t drink and could use this cookbook. This mocktail cookbook works to remedy that, at least while in the comfort of your own home. There’s recipes for favs like margaritas and an old fashioned to the authors own creations. I for one can’t wait to try a fauxjito (a mock mojito) and a pineapple bebida, a spicy blend of pineapple juice, agave, jalapeños, and sparkling water. There’s really something here for everyone. There beautiful photos of nearly every drink as well.

I had no idea zero proof tequila was a thing!! Now I’m on a mission to find some so I can make a mock margarita. Happy alcohol free drinking!

Monday Night Mocktails by Jennifer Newens is a zero-proof recipe book of mixed drinks. Every recipe had a photo with it, and measurements are given in both English and Metric. Most recipes only make 1 - 2 drinks and require an N/A alcohol, and if you can find the zero-proof liquors and wines, there are several creative seasonal beverages included, such as Pumpkin Spice Toddy, Sansgria, and a Turmeric Lemon Drop. If you can't find those items, the author does include a list of resources in the back to have them shipped to you.

This book contained mostly classic cocktails, with a handful of recipes that were new and creative. I was hoping for more recipes involving kombucha, or recipes on how to make and use your own shrubs. There's one recipe for a pineapple shrub in the book, but I'd like to see more for the other shrubs mentioned (i.e. peach or berry).

I found a few keeper recipes in this book. However, a lot of the recipes were fairly standard with just a substitution of zero-proof alcohols for the regular ones. I recommend Monday Night Mocktails by Jennifer Newens to those who are choosing to abstain from alcohol and have access to a variety of N/A beverages or are willing to spend the extra money to have them shipped. If the recipes were scaled, I think this book would be great for entertaining. Cheers!

Thank you to NetGalley, Jennifer Newens, and The Collective Book Studio for the opportunity to read the ARC of this book. I was not required to write a review, and all opinions expressed are my own.

52 alcohol free recipes. I like the idea of mocktails. They can be shared by all of us, any age. I received a complimentary copy from NetGalley. This review is my feelings towards the book.

Really fun, informative book of mocktail recipes that will keep you from missing the alcohol! Broken up into different seasons, these recipes are easy, and explained well. I didn't realize that there were also non-alcoholic spirits, With great pictures, this book will allow you to make a pretty, fancy drink for yourself and others without worrying about how you'll feel tomorrow.

Thank you Netgalley and The Collective Book Studio for the ARC!

Wow, what a cool book! I’m trying to drink less alcohol because I find that as I get older even one drink negatively impacts my sleep. The mocktail recipes in this book gave me great ideas through the use of flavorful syrups and ingredients, all of which are easy to find. Many of the recipes do suggest non-alcohol spirits but it seems they could easily be omitted. I also liked how the recipes were organized by weeks of the year (and seasons), with lighter drinks in the summer section and heavier and more festive recipes included in the fall and winter sections. I’ll be trying many of these soon!

This mocktail book is delightful! I tend to get a lot of headaches, so I've been trying out a few mocktail recipes for a fun treat that won't make my headaches worse.

With over 50 recipes, this book is split up into the four seasons of the year. Every recipe has a photo, and the photography alone is gorgeous! I also appreciate that each drink recipe has a reasonable amount of ingredients and not like 2-3x more items to track down than a traditional cocktail. The directions are short and sweet too.

I'm most excited about the fall and winter recipes. I didn't realize that there were non-alchoholic versions of liquor, which sounds silly, but the industry really has expanded so much the last few years. I will be running (!!!) to the store so I can try out more .

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and author for my advanced digital copy!

thank you netgalley for the e-arc. i was really excited to get this arc, i have been trying to drink less alcohol but still want a fancy drink at night or on the weekends. i was disappointed to see that almost all these drinks required a zero proof spirit (alcohol free rum/vodka/whiskey). those bottled zero proof spirits are expensive to have on hand for just some experimental NA cocktails. but the drinks overall were so creative and things i haven't really seen before.

Thank you so much for sending me an Advanced Digital Copy of this book. The author gives very good information about tools and glassware for preparing mocktails. There are 52 recipes (one for each week). I am going to enjoy preparing these for years to come.

I don’t shy away from alcohol, but I also don’t see it out. However, I do enjoy a good Mocktail as I really don’t have a need for alcohol if I drink is enjoyable all on its own without. The husband and I found this book to be most interesting and we plan to make one new drink a week from this book over the course of the next year. This is gonna be fun!

This is a great book for a beginner mix-ologist regardless of their alcohol consumption. People who drink can sub in the appropriate alcohol but I really appreciate how it is focuses on mocktails.

There are tons of classic recipes made into mocktails as well as drinks I have never heard of. It is laid out by season so you can drink the cranberry drinks in fall, the eggnog in winter, etc.. Every single drink has a picture! I love when food-related books have a picture for every recipe because it makes each recipe more appealing and appetizing. There is also a list of supplies needed in the front of the book and their purpose. Along the way, it describes how to muddle or any other foundational aspects to the drinks.

I really enjoyed it and am very excited to try out more recipes.

Thank you to Netgalley for an ARC in exchange for the honest review.

This book is, in a word, GORGEOUS. I won't lie and say that half the reason I go for recipe books like this isn't for the pictures, because IT IS. If nothing else, Newens's recipe book here is a triumph in picture, if not also in inventinveness and ingenuity. I'm not a big drinker to begin with, (caaaaaaan you say lifelong migraine/IBS/GERD sufferer and heavy sugar and sulfite-laden drinks literally cause these issues?!) but having a recipe book for tasty cocktails sans booze is a wonderful idea.

I took off a star because trying to source things like alcohol-free whiskey simply isn't feasible in most parts of the US, let alone a large beverage distributor that specializes in said things. I was hoping then that she'd have at least one or two recipes for the aforementioned non-alcoholic "alcohols" themselves, but there wasn't. (I get that this wasn't the point of the book, but even a nudge into how to make a faux beer even wouldn't have gone amiss)

If you're looking for an excellent mocktail book, or even for just a fun way to spice up sparkling grape juice come New Years, (THAT STUFF IS ADDICTIVE) this is an excellent reference and will 100% be ordering this to accompany my own bevvy of fancy cocktail recipe books!

I can not wait to gift this book to all my friends this winter for a gift. It was SO fun! I have made a few of the drinks and they were delicious. This book was put together beautifully. Highly recommend.

Monday Night Mocktails is perfect for those who want to enjoy a beverage without the full proof version. There are 52 drinks collected in the book, one for every week, and they are broken down by season. Traditional barware is still recommended as technique is important for many of the drinks. Personally, I found the recipes easy to follow, although some of the ingredients may not be readily accessible where you are. In this event, there are alternatives recommended or suggested retail where they can be found. Many of the recipes do call for a high quality zero proof version of the real spirit (wine, vodka, gin, bourbon, rum, tequila, and liqueurs). The pictures are just stunning and really showcase the beauty in some of the colors and presentations.
