Cocktails are often hiding more sugar in them then you think! We've got your back on how to make drinks with less sugar without sacrificing flavor or taste from the digital version of Seasons Magazine. Opting for mixers such as sparkling water or diet sodas will significantly reduce sugar in any cocktail. One of our favorites is switching zero-sugar ginger beer out for regular ginger beer in our Mistletoe Mule and our Spicy Apple Ginger Cocktail! Along with sodas, often times sugar is hiding in various simple syrups. Try switching out a traditional simple syrup for Swerve granular sugar replacement in our Vanilla Bourbon Cocktail! Check out the 7 recipes below that are sure to be a crowd pleaser; you won't even miss the sugar!
Matcha and Almond Gin Fizz
This drink brings unique flavors that pair well the Gin. You get bright, peppery, fresh notes from the ginger beer with the earthy balanced flavor of the matcha.
