Although The Brick changes its mocktail offerings seasonally, this nonalcoholic Moscow Mule with a twist is so popular that it stays on the menu throughout the year. “I started playing around with this when I was pregnant,” says Brunner. “It was great to actually have something fun to drink other than pop or water.” Opt for ginger beer instead of sweeter ginger ale. It adds spicy zing and backbone.
