Not every Tuesday calls for tequila—sometimes you want something light, refreshing, and family-friendly to pair with your tacos. Enter the Citrus Mint Refresher, a bubbly mocktail bursting with vibrant flavors of orange and fresh spearmint. It’s easy to make, gorgeous to serve, and the perfect complement to any taco spread.
Why We Love It:
This mocktail combines the sweet tang of orange juice with the effervescence of soda water, giving you a drink that’s as satisfying as it is refreshing. The addition of spearmint takes it to the next level, adding an aromatic twist that feels downright indulgent. Garnished with a slice of orange, it’s as visually stunning as it is delicious.

Perfect Pairings:
This mocktail pairs wonderfully with citrusy or spicy tacos, like fish tacos with lime crema or classic ground beef tacos with a kick of jalapeño. The bright orange and mint notes offer a refreshing contrast to bold taco flavors, creating a perfect balance.
Why Mocktails Matter:
Mocktails are more than just a non-alcoholic alternative—they’re a way to include everyone in the celebration, from kids to adults who are skipping the booze. Plus, they’re so delicious, you might find yourself reaching for a mocktail even when margaritas are on the table.
Cheers to tacos and tasty drinks!
