Yeah upon the first kid I bought this book and after going through it was kind of disapointed. While the drinks can be complex, the overall thought is that any drink w/o alcohol is therefore a mocktail. The complex drinks require ingredients that are harder to find then some bar ingredients. I think lemonade is the first recipe listed. I can 100% guarantee that if I'm drinking a Lapu Lapu and she's drinking a lemonade...she ain't gonna be happy because she wants to a least feel slightly fooled. That's why I think virgin Piña Coladas are rubbish. Virgin margaritas (using lemonade, ironically) tends to be a hit but we all know what's missing. :wink:
