Like every year the vibes of Diwali started months ago. This is the time of the year…..don’t worry we shall not be bombarding you with the information which is already overflowing on many websites because we’re pretty sure you must have read it numerous times.
Rather, we are here to share with you some easy-peasy recipes of non-alcoholic Diwali drinks made with fresh juices which can elevate your Diwali party to a whole new level. Not just that, they make great refreshing drinks to serve your guests with over adulterated juices or carbonated sodas which are not only common but can wreak havoc on your health because of the unhealthy ingredients present in them.
These booze free healthy alternatives are also great if you are looking forward to making healthy changes this year. So starting your healthy journey from Diwali festival is a good idea. After all, it’s always about the small changes which lead to big impacts.
But firstly, read on to know why you should consider fresh and chemical-free juices for making non-alcoholic drinks this Diwali 2023.
Why You Should Be Careful While Selecting Juices For Diwali?
Juices are one of the major elements associated with Diwali as much as sweets and dry fruits are. The market is full of gift hampers which have a combination of these so called “fruit Juices” which actually have small or no content of actual fruits.
Fruit drinks or juices easily available in the supermarket are loaded with artificial colour, flavours, and refined sugar to create a taste like actual fruit. But in reality, there is no actual content of fruits present in them. And, if there is a certain amount then the addition of unhealthy ingredients is so much so that it makes no point to drink these drinks which may have good taste but poor nutrition.
This is one of the main reasons why you must opt for a brand which is fresh-to-order and provides a range of pure juices preferably cold-pressed, and made with nothing but seasonal and premium fruits just like OMJOOS. It’s also a great idea to juice at home to leave no doubt regarding the quality. But yes, since Diwali is a festival which requires a lot of arrangements considering buying chemical-free juice from a reputed and authentic brand is a good to go.
Now, let’s take a scroll to find out the combinations hit for making non-alcoholic drinks and select which drink you would love to say cheers with!
