Finally: A Good Candy Cane Martini Mocktail

Non-alcoholic vodka is still the toughest nut to crack, along with red wine. It’s taken many years of trial and error to finally get this non-alcoholic candy cane martini mocktail just perfect!

This recipe uses Dhos Vodka Free, which tastes like potato water, because well it’s made from potato water for some reason. Other non-alcoholic vodka variations are ok, but don’t stand up next to peppermint. This one, oddly, does.

**Note: Store bought vanilla bean simple syrup is totally fine here.

So get our your shakers this holiday and make this delicious candy-cane flavoured mocktail! Enjoy!
