If you’re looking for a refreshing cocktail suitable for a family dinner, the Baby Bellini and the Citrus Fizz are excellent choices.

The Baby Bellini is a non-alcoholic spin on the classic Bellini from the 1930s, making it a delightful option for all ages. With its combination of lemon juice and peach juice served in a champagne glass, it provides a sophisticated yet refreshing flavor. Its high rating of 4.56/5 indicates that it's well-loved for its delicious taste and elegance, making it perfect for a relaxed family gathering.

Alternatively, the Citrus Fizz offers a vibrant and bubbly experience with its mix of lime juice, orange juice, Angostura Bitters, and tonic water. Served cold in a champagne glass, this non-alcoholic drink combines tangy and sweet flavors with a fizzy texture, making it both refreshing and celebratory. The addition of Angostura Bitters adds a layer of complexity, which can be appreciated by older family members as well.

Both these cocktails are sure to bring a refreshing and enjoyable touch to your family dinner, allowing everyone to partake in a sophisticated and delightful beverage without the alcohol.
