Here's what's up for grabs....
I've had much fun making divided baskets for my friends to use as nappy holders and generally enjoy Anna's patterns so I am offering to make the winner a noodle-head pattern of her choice....
here are the options from the noodle-head shop |

Basically, answer the question for one chance to win and for an optional second chance, follow me on instagram. Simples. Open to all. Oh, and I will try really hard to get the finished thing to you by Christmas (McMojo permitting!).
Like others, I'm planning to Go Sober in October. This will be in memory of the parents of my best friend who both passed away in the same week in September. I am not collecting sponsorship myself, but if you would like to donate a little something please do so either via https://gosober.org.uk/profile/luiserussell or Pippa's link https://gosober.org.uk/profile/pippaparsons

Awesome giveaway! I've no idea about mocktails I'm afraid, I'm more likely to stick the kettle on :)
ReplyDeleteSuperb giveaway idea. How about some of that cordial stuff that Ikea sell along with tonic and some orange juice? Face anything less than alcohol will not hit the spot but good luck anyway.
ReplyDeleteFab giveaway! All her patterns are amazing! Sorry, but I don't know any mocktails, but what I do think is a nice non alcoholic drink is mixing some nice green bottle (or other brand!) cordial with sparkling water. Good luck with you McMojo!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway think i have entered! A friend of mine used to quite like ginger beer and blackcurrant juice ?!?
ReplyDeletethe not-quite-a-paloma cocktail - juice of half a pink grapefruit, juice of half a lime, teaspoon of sugar, ice, and top it up with fizzy water. On November 1st you can add a shot of tequila ;-)
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway - thank you!!! I found this website with a bunch of recipes for all sorts of mocktails: http://www.stirrednotshaken.net/mocktails/ Have fun trying them all!!!
ReplyDeletegreat give away, re the question going sober just lock away the booze! I hoper to do it too. I was about to open a bottle of wine this evening then thoght no as I take 3 to 4 days on one bottle I would not get it down in time!
ReplyDeleteNumpty here! It isn't a mocktail but my favourite smoothly at the moment is spinach, banana, satsuma and mango. Tastes nicer than you might thing and very healthy!
ReplyDeleteWow! 200 blog posts, congratulations :) Thank you for the chance to win one of these lovelies. I love the gathered clutch. If I could do the regram thingy, I would, but I will do something else instead! Good luck for staying off the booze XXXX
ReplyDeletePS) No special mocktail recipes here. I'm with Lucy :)
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway Moira and well done on reaching 200 blog posts. I have no idea about mocktails I'm afraid. I do like elderflower cordial with fizzy water and lots of ice though!
ReplyDeleteDont have a mocktail but instead of and Irish Coffee I have black coffee, and condensed milk which goes to the bottom not on top. Sickly at the end but lush :)
ReplyDeleteps I followed you on Instagram
ReplyDeleteMmmm mocktails - all my favourites have grenadine in. Grenadine with ginger beer / tonic water, grenadine with OJ / tonic or lemonade, grenadine with tropical juice / fizz ..... If you are allowed angostura bitters (I know they contain alcohol but you only need a droplet to change the taste of your drink) that makes a mocktail even better!! And don't forget your mini paper umbrella.
ReplyDeletePS where did you get your Social Tote pattern from? I can't find any UK / European retailers at all!
ReplyDeleteThe only mocktail I ever had was a Virgin Bloody Mary, I like mine with lots of olive...
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I'm afraid I don't drink so am no use in the mocktail suggestions, maybe take up biscuit eating instead?!
ReplyDeleteI once heard someone (at a weight watchers meeting!!) say that you could fool yourself into thinking you were drinking rum and coke, by drinking diet coke with rum flavouring - sounds vile disgusting to me, and why would you???? Good luck for October..... compensate the alcohol with cake would be my suggestion. I can't work those raffle things, I'm too old!! xxx
ReplyDeleteI just drink fizzy water with a wedge of lime! So exciting. If you try very hard you can pretend it's a g&t ......
ReplyDeleteHmm. I don't drink so should be good at this mocktail thing! But I don't get much past lemonade, my favourite. Stick a shot of lime in it, lots of ice and a stirrer/brolly combo and I'm a happy girl!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 200th post! For mocktails I like 1/2 a jug of cranberry juice & a splash of lime cordial, thinly sliced oranges with crushed ice and it all topped up with mineral water!
ReplyDeleteI recommend either a Shirley temple, lemon cheesecake drink or a chocolate liquor it is none alcoholic the girls have it!
ReplyDeleteAmazing giveaway and congratulations :-) I love tonic water with orange juice and a squeeze of lemon!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy cranberry juice and ginger ale! You can do it!
ReplyDeleteerm.... diet Coke? So that would be vodka and diet Coke without the vodka? sorry, I can't repost on Instagram as I haven't the faintest idea how to do that!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway! No help on the mocktails, I'm the same as Lu ;o)
ReplyDeleteLots of water.....and a refreshing diet coke!
ReplyDeleteGinger beer with fresh lime and mint. You can pretend it's got vodka in it. Was my drink of choice when pregnant
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 200 posts!! I think that is awesome! Sparkling cider would be fun! or some Chai! I love Noodlehead patterns!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! Following on the mocktails
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway! I love soda water with juice. Don't know much about the fancier mocktails.
ReplyDeleteWhen not on the booze, I really like sparkling mineral water with a dash of lime juice or black currant & apple juice. Great giveaway, thanks for the chance to win this awesome prize.
ReplyDeleteOther than during pregnancy I try and avoid Mocktails!! Only joking, well done for going sober!!!
ReplyDeleteM&S have a really nice sparkling apple juice, (thats in a lovely bottle too) that I've taken to dinners when I've had to drive. Then at least you feel like your having something nicer than water! Also tonic water with a slice of lemon and lime often makes me feel like I'm having the gin in there too!
Kombucha is my go to drink these days!
ReplyDeleteBlackcurrant juice with lemon! Yummy! Great giveaway!!!! I love Annas patterns!
ReplyDeleteWell done on all your posts! I'm a bit boring on the mocktail front and love a lime and soda. Although one Christmas I did whip up a cranberry based mulled wine which wasn't too bad!
ReplyDeleteStrawberry dacquiri - yum. With no alcohol even tastes great!
ReplyDeleteCoconut water and pineapple. Healthier piña colada.
ReplyDeleteI'm not really a drinker, but I love lingonberry syrup from IKEA with lemonade :)
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid that I don't really know any mocktail recepies but ginger beer has done quite well at getting me through the last eight months x
ReplyDeleteAwesome and generius giveaway!!! 👏👏👏👏👏 for your 200 IG followers and for your 200th blogspot!!!
ReplyDeleteAs a good brazilian I suggest CAIPIRINHA! 😋😋😋 squize a lemon with some vodka and a little bit of sugar and ice! Enjoy!!
Congrats on 200 posts! Sorry no help for the mocktails
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 200th Blog Posts...sorry am not a drinker....Do like Sparkling Grape Juice now & then,,,usually Christmas & New Year's for us. Looove Noodlehead patterns!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't know much about mocktails but enjoy cranberry juice with 7 Up. Congrats on the 200th blog post
ReplyDeleteI am sorry but I don't know anything about mocktails but why not order a cocktail and tell them to hold the alcohol!! Lots of cocktails have several ingredients as well as the alcohol. Good luck with that.

I had to give up Diet Coke/caffeine and so I mix the posh 'Green Bottle' cordial, apple and plum is the best, with fizzy water which I used to hate. So add a twist of lemon, ice and a little brolly to make your mocktail. Good luck .... If failed already, sat having a Cider to use the Wifi
ReplyDeleteI follow you in instagram! The 24 is my favorite
ReplyDeleteA shirley temple! Happy 200th
ReplyDeleteI don't drink many cocktails. The most cocktaily thing I have is a mix of hot water, milk, tea and a bit of sugar. Does that count? :) congratulations on 200 posts!
ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about cocktails, or mocktails, sorry! What about trying hot drinks, like mulled apple cider, or hot chocolate, or mint tea with honey? sarah@forrussia.org
ReplyDeleteIm a tea girl like so many of the rest, if it's not a vino its a brew every time :o)
ReplyDeleteThis time of year I might suggest hot cider.
ReplyDeleteMocktails tough one....I like the frozen strawberry daiquiri mix with ginger ale
ReplyDeleteI am a IG follower but I have no idea how to repost something
ReplyDeleteI am into the flavored soda water...it's water and no extra sugar. It gives me the feeling I'm drinking something much more and I'm oh so happy.
ReplyDeleteYour patterns are amazing. I'd love to have any one of them!! Mocktails...I don't know that I've ever actually had one. Maybe a shirley temple? I drink way too much coffee, myself. But maybe some great new teas or something would supplement. :) Good luck, and great cause.
ReplyDeleteHow about selzer mixed with any kind of juice? I like orange selzer with cranberry/raspberry.
ReplyDeleteWe make a KILLER blackberry monitor that could easily be adapted for no rum. So, simple syrup, fresh mint sprigs, half a lime, fresh or frozen blackberries, crushed ice, and seltzer. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!!
ReplyDeleteBlackberry Mojito. Stupid autocorrect! I follow you on IG because of Mariana.
ReplyDeleteAnything with fruit, ice and a blender :)
ReplyDeletewater.. :) not much of a drinker so, can't help you there.. sweet tea.. that's a good one too.
ReplyDeleteApple and orange juice together! I always forget how nice it is
ReplyDeleteI don't know of any mocktails but am eagerly ready the replys to find some out too!
ReplyDeleteMocktails are the best - you may well get converted! I love Strawberry Daiquiri - Strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, ice and lemonade - so refreshing!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations for your blog! Why stay sober for a month?! I'd never even heard of mocktails, they sound terrible. OK, if you really have to, make yourself a granita: loads of ice and a really sugary black cherry syrup!
ReplyDeleteCongrat on all your followers. You have done well :-) Matcha green tea will give you a boost
