Mockarita - low calorie
take about 4 large limes and one lemon squeeze into a blender with a handful or so of ice add a can of sprite zero and a little salt blend until its the consistency you like.

Sangria without the wine
Sangria is a Spanish punch that's made with wine, selzer and fruit slices (but there are lots of variations, so just google "sangria recipe"). You can use non-alcoholic wine instead of regular wine. It's festive -- and since the fruit and spices are so flavorful, the absence of real wine isn't noticiable
Soda Water
Almost any type of concentrated fruit juice, punch or 'ade' tastes great when combined with fizzy soda water rather than plain water. Garnishs such as cherries or other fruit pieces can make even plain drinks more festive--and healthy.
Ginger Lemonade
made without artificial ingredients, and flavored with freshly grated ginger or fresh mint leaves. If a punch bowl is used, the leaves look lovely. Thin slices of lemon floating enhance the appearance as well as the lemony flavor.
Italian Soda
an italian soda: to a tall glass, add a thimble full of syrup (like Torani or Davinci in any flavor that interests you), another thimble full of cream, and then top (slowly) with club soda.
