Notes
Substitute note: A reader suggested adding ¼ teaspoon of peppercorns to add a little heat.
To make a mocktail: Start by using these zero-proof spirits in a 1:1 ratio. For example, if a recipe calls for 2 ounces of whiskey, use 2 ounces of the whiskey substitute. Adjust the ratio to your liking, using more for a stronger flavor or less for a milder one. A great combination to start with is 2 ounces zero-proof whiskey + 1 ounce simple syrup + 1 ounce lemon/lime juice, which is similar to a basic whiskey sour.
