Mixology for the Mom-to-Be

You just found out you're pregnant again - congratulations! But wait, you're hosting a big party in honor of St. Patrick's Day and had planned to inbibe in a few green drinks - and I don't mean wheatgrass. What to do? Grab a copy of Natalie Bovis-Nelsen Preggatinis: Mixology for the Mom-to-be and whip up a batch of non-alcoholic cocktails that will make all that green beer look so boring. Plus, these cocktails are so fabulous your friends just make prefer them over the alternative.

Being pregnant doesn't have to mean the end of parties - it just means being a little more creative when it comes to alcoholic alternatives. Sure, you could serve soft drinks, but Preggatinis make the party a whole lot more festive.

Natalie Bovis-Nelsen is a master of mixology and the face behind The Liquid Muse. She has traveled the world sampling cocktails and has cleverly crafted some of the most creative non-alcoholic cocktails around in her book, Preggatinis. I mean, who else would think to rim the glass of a drink called "Yankee Doodle Candy" with Pop-Rocks? How cool is that? It would surely be the hit of your next baby shower, and those who do imbibe could even add a splash of their favorite libation if they so choose. But with drinks this exciting, who needs to?

If you'd prefer to go the pre-mixed route, try Glow Mama - a low-sugar, caffeine-free beverage that is loaded with essential vitamins, minerals and fiber you need to keep going and glowing. Infused with the invigorating flavor of kiwi, Glow Mama is a refreshing and healthy alternative to soft drinks. Whether straight from the bottle or "on the rocks", it'll help keep you hydrated while satisfying your craving for a grown-up drink. Cheers!
