Lemon gelatin cocktail, for which we need two teaspoons of lemon jelly, the juice of two lemons, three soda cups, four drained maraschino cherries and some lemon slices for decoration. We deposit the jelly in a saucepan, and in a measuring jug the lemon juice and boiling water until a total of two deciliters is completed. We add this mixture to the gelatin and stir over very low heat until the gelatin has completely dissolved. Let cool in a jar and when the mixture is semi-liquid we add the soda little by little, stirring the whole set. We serve with a cherry on a stick and decorate with a slice of lemon.

Smoothie of pineapple, mango and coconut water, very simple to make with the blender. We need a pineapple, a mango, an orange, 250 ml of coconut water, 10 g of fresh ginger, 3 tablespoons of honey and 200-300 g of ice cubes. After beating all the chopped ingredients, the ice is added to the blender until it forms a slush. If we want the most liquid drink, we can add the coconut water we want.
Smoothie with red fruits and mango, a drink that is prepared in two phases. We need 100g of red fruits, 1/2 mango, 75ml of milk, 75ml of orange juice, crushed ice. First we beat the red fruits with the milk, reserving a blackberry to decorate, and pour it into a glass. Then we cut the mango into tacos and beat it with the orange juice and some crushed ice. We serve very carefully on the red fruit smoothie, so that they do not mix and achieve the effect of two colors.
I am not in favor of talking about cocktails for children, but of course these combinations can also be perfect for the little ones in the house if we talk about special "juices" and with them you can enjoy the whole family and surprise the guests. I hope these alcoholic cocktails are delicious to toast at Christmasfor a baby shower or any celebration
