Deck the hall with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
‘Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
It’s the holiday season, a time for holiday music and holiday cheer! What’s the best way to enjoy this season with friends and family while supporting your health? Herbal mocktails of course!
With program presenter Julia Ward, a certified ACE health coach, you’ll drink and be merry with herbal concoctions. These hand-crafted drinks and mocktails have been used for centuries to delight one’s palate while providing daily medicinals. These concoctions are merry and bright, designed to energize, relax and taste delicious. They’ll be well-received at any holiday party or throughout the year.
The final mocktails menu is subject to change but you can look forward to drinks such as a holiday nut nog or Christmas Kale Mocktini.
