Alcohol-Free Reimaginings of Literary Classics

Enjoy co-authors Delanie Fischer and Lindsey Smith’s delicious mocktail adaptations of your favorite books and authors.

Beloved stories with a sober twist. Have you ever wondered what the ladies from your favorite Jane Austen books would drink at a ball? What Jay Gatsby would be serving at his crazy parties? Experience these answers for yourself with Lindsey Smith and Delanie Fischer’s all-new zero-proof drink cookbook. MockTales captures the intoxicating atmosphere of the bestsellers that we know and love. Featuring over fifty plant-based recipes that are easy to make and full of nutritious flavors, you’ll enjoy your next reread like never before with these delicious mocktails.

A toast to the authors who made history. Each recipe inside MockTales is inspired by the literary characters and settings, but also the minds behind these incredible stories. Explore alcohol-free concoctions based on famous authors such as Alice Walker, Ernest Hemingway, Margaret Atwood, and more. Using ingredients that pay homage to their biographies, writing styles, and famous quotes, each sip will have you and fellow book lovers falling in love with these incredible writers all over again.

Enjoy over 50 recipes inspired by banned books and literary classics from all genres, such as:

  • Historical fiction novels like Les Miserables, Little Women, and Huckleberry Finn
  • Romance books such as Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice
  • Fantasy adventures including Alice in Wonderland and The Chronicles of Narnia
  • Science fiction and horror tales such as Frankenstein
  • Book-to-film adaptations like A Clockwork Orange and Fight Club

So if you liked fun mocktail and cocktail books such as Tequila Mockingbird, The Art of Mixology Mocktails, or Flavor Lab Creations, then we recommend MockTales for you.
