Celebrating Everyday Moments with Philters: Ideas for Unique Gatherings
Life is full of momentous occasions, be it weddings, birthdays, big promotions, or dates, but at the end of the day, our life is the result of how we live the day-to-day, and it should be celebrated just as much. Now, if you’re a conscious drinker, sharing those special everyday moments with family and friends can be more of a challenge as managing everyone’s choices around drink can be a bit of a hassle, or it would be without Philters. For those that may not know, Philters is a zero-proof spirits brand, specializing in producing high-quality non-alcoholic drinks that still match traditional cocktails in taste and sophistication. Whether it’s a simple afternoon with friends or a casual family dinner, Philters offers the perfect way to elevate the experience, making it easy to connect, celebrate, and enjoy the moment.
Here are some ideas for unique gatherings and creative ways to incorporate Philters into your next social event.
1. Brunch with a Twist: Zero-Proof Mimosas and More
Brunch is a beloved tradition, one that has become synonymous with the consumption of a drink made with champagne and orange juice called mimosa. Imagine gathering everyone you love for an outdoor brunch on a bright summer day as tall glasses of mimosa drip their cold moisture onto a white table. Except if you don’t drink, that will be no good at all.
Luckily, you can make your own Zero-Proof Mimosa Bar featuring Philters’ citrusy, vibrant Jynn spirit. Just mix it with sparkling water or a splash of fruit juice for a non-alcoholic version of the classic brunch cocktail. Set up a spread of fruit garnishes, fresh herbs, and flavored syrups for some customization and you’ll be good to go.
2. A Mid-Week Celebration: After-Work Wind Down
Sometimes we need a mid-week break to pick ourselves up after a long crunch at work. And one of the best ways to go about doing that is to host a low-key after-work gathering with friends, colleagues, or neighbors.
Now, in case you or some of your guests are not drinkers, you can offer them a Zero-Proof Mezcal Margarita. Just mix Mezkahl with fresh lime juice, agave syrup, and a touch of soda water. Serve it on the rocks with a salted rim for that authentic margarita experience without the alcohol. The smoky flavor of the Mezkahl adds complexity to the drink, making it perfect for those who still want a sophisticated, grown-up drink without the negative effects of alcohol.
3. Picnic in the Park: A Celebration of Nature and Connection
Picnics are one of the most underappreciated activities out there. And yet you can make it even better with some Wiski (yes, a zero-proof whisky) in your picnic drinks menu, or maybe even use to make something more elaborate. For example, if you mix Wiski with fresh iced tea or lemonade you can make a killer iced tea cocktail, especially with some fresh mint and a few slices of lemon for extra flavor.
Add a few comfy blankets, your favorite tunes, and a selection of snacks like charcuterie boards or fruit platters and you’ve got yourself a wonderful evening surrounded by nature.
4. Family Dinner Night: Savor the Moment with Non-Alcoholic Drinks
Sharing a meal with your family at the dinner table is a great way to nurture some essential connections with your loved ones, but getting that to happen when not everyone enjoys the same drink can be a bit difficult. However, with Philters, even your kids can enjoy a Zero-Proof Whiskey Sour made with Wiski, fresh lemon juice, and a touch of honey. Serve it in a fun glass with a cherry garnish and you have something everyone will talk about for years to come.
You can even give it a unique twist on the classic soda and lime, mix Jynn with club soda and a dash of cranberry juice, then top with fresh lime and mint. Besides tasting amazing, it serves as a healthy alternative to both soda and alcohol.
5. Game Night with Friends: Spice Up Your Usual Routine
Game nights, be they digital or tabletop, are awesome. And you can make them even better by combining the right ingredients with some of Philters’ Mezkahl. Mix Mezkahl with grapefruit soda and a squeeze of lime and the result will be one of the best non-alcoholic Palomas you’ve ever drank. You can also offer a variation with Wiski for a non-alcoholic version of an Old Fashioned.
Get some popcorn and other snacks in some bowls and you should have everything necessary for a night to remember.
