Chapter 13 - No Hangover, Please
Non-alcoholic Drinks from FreeBartendingSchool.com

We should start by clarifying the common misunderstanding that Virgin Drinks and non-alcoholic drinks are one in the same. Not true. Virgin Drinks are simply drinks where the alcohol is excluded, for example, to make a Virgin Margarita or a Frozen Daiquiri, simply remove the alcohol from the recipe. You can apply this practice to any drink out there. Non-alcoholic drinks on the other hand are drinks specifically designed to be served without alcohol. This is not the type of point that would be the difference in you obtaining a job, but it is still the type of knowledge you should commit to memory. It is important to have a few non-alcoholic drinks up your sleeve that you can offer to a designated driver, non-drinker or child.

Don’t be concerned when you take a look at the 200+ differing drinks we’ve listed. There is no need to memorize all these drinks! However, we would suggest that you have fun and explore this chapter and try to add another 10 or so from this list on top of the 76 listed above to your repertoire of “no brainers”.
