Drinks Made Healthy

There are so many drinks, soft, regular, and alcoholic, that choosing only twenty out of them seems unfair. The “Bartender’s Black Book” lists 2,800 recipes. You’ll find 734 non-alcoholic drink recipes on DrinksMixer.com alone. That did not stop Andy, our in-house mix master. Here he shares why:

“It’s no coincidence that when agricultural societies came into being about 7-8000 years ago, some of their first and most coveted products were beer, then wine, then hard spirits. Today they are staples in our diet, having metamorphosed into thousands of ready and home-made drinks to lift your mood or drown your sorrow. No sorrow here - my recipes’ only purpose is to make you feel better. And healthier.”

Help us out -- he can't be in the limelight too much, so he won't neglect his role as partner in charge of production. Keep your recipes coming through the * Made with Sugarlesse™ * contest -- we can't wait to feature you!
