How to Build a Holiday Booch Bar at Home, (Zero Alcohol, Maximum Festive Cheer)

The holidays are here — and that means gatherings, sparkly tables, shared meals, and plenty of glasses raised. But if you’re keeping things alcohol-free (or hosting guests who prefer it), drink options can often feel… uninspired.

Enter: The Holiday Booch Bar — a bright, festive, zero-stress drink station that adds colour, creativity, and grown-up sparkle to your celebrations. Whether you’re hosting a cozy dinner, a festive brunch, or a New Year’s Eve night in, a Booch Bar makes the moment feel special without the alcohol hangover.

Here’s how to set up yours.

1. Start With the Booch (Festive Flavours = Instant Holiday Vibes)

Choose 3–4 flavours so your guests can mix, explore, and create.

Holiday favourites:

  • Raspberry & Ginger (vibrant + warming spice)

  • Apple & Cinnamon (cosy, wintery, nostalgic)

  • Mandarin & Turmeric (golden, citrusy, uplifting)

  • Gingerbread (monthly special — available at ripe market)

  • Mulled Booch (monthly special — available at ripe market)

Display the bottles in a chilled bucket with holiday touches — citrus slices, rosemary, or pine sprigs.

2. Add Holiday Garnishes

Garnishes make drinks fun, festive, and totally personal.

Try:

  • Orange wheels, pomegranate seeds, cranberries

  • Cinnamon sticks, cloves, star anise

  • Fresh rosemary or sage

  • Ginger slices

  • Dehydrated citrus for a premium look

Let guests build their own glass — it becomes part of the experience.

3. Keep the Tools Simple

No cocktail shakers necessary.
All you really need is:

  • A mason jar (for muddling or mixing)

  • Ice

  • A wooden spoon

  • A few glasses (tall, short, festive)

If you can stir, you can Booch Bar.

4. Offer 2 Festive Signature Mocktails

You don’t need a full menu — just two or three crowd-pleasers.

✨ Holiday Raspberry Mojito

Raspberry & Ginger Booch + lime + mint + ice
Fresh, bright, and beautiful.

✨ Golden Glow Spritz

Mandarin & Turmeric Booch + orange slice + ice
Sunshine meets holiday sparkle.

✨ Bonus: Mulled Booch

Available as a refill at Ripe Market, stock up and serve Mulled Booch in mugs with star anise and orange peel.
It tastes like winter comfort — Booch style.


5. Set the Mood (Music, Lights, Cozy Atmosphere)

A Holiday Booch Bar shines when the vibes are right.

Think:

  • Warm, soft lighting

  • Holiday jazz or acoustic playlists

  • Sprigs of greenery and citrus on the table

  • Fairy lights for instant magic

Simple details → big holiday energy.
