Cocktails Vs.
Mocktails --- What’s The Difference?
A party cannot hold without drinks and cocktails are probably one of the most popular drinks during at
parties.
A Cocktail is an alcoholic mixed drink.
It contains two or more ingredients and at least one of
these ingredients is a spirit (also known as liquor).
Originally, a cocktail contains water, spirits, and sugar
and bitters (a bitter or bittersweet-tasting alcoholic beverage that is flavored with herbal essences).
But
nowadays, the word “cocktail” is used to refer to almost all kinds of mixed drinks that contain alcohol.
As
now, a cocktail may contain one or more spirits and one or more mixture (the non-alcoholic ingredients in
cocktails) which could either soda, fruit juice or something else.
From the word “mock”, meaning to mimic or to imitate comes the term “Mocktails”.
A Mocktail
is actually a drink that imitates a cocktail except that it doesn’t have any alcohol.
This flavorful drink is
sometimes called a “punches”
