A mocktail is a mixed drink with no alcohol in it. It is built like a cocktail — fruit, soda, herbs, syrup, ice, a nice glass — so it still feels like a night-out drink, not just a glass of juice. People order one when they are driving, pregnant, too young, or simply do not want alcohol. The word is playful and common now; you will see it on café and bar menus. Informal to neutral. Though actually, “no alcohol” is the whole point: a drink with a little beer or wine in it is not a mocktail, even if it looks like one. And plain orange juice is not a mocktail either — the cocktail half means it is mixed and dressed up. It is also not automatically healthy; many are full of sugar. Older speakers may still say “non-alcoholic cocktail,” which means the same thing.

無酒精調酒。台灣菜單常直接寫 mocktail；中國大陸較常說「模擬雞尾酒」。
