“At Bar Julian, we utilize our signature fresh-pressed juices and bespoke syrups to make playful, colorful, and intriguing zero-proof beverages. We make use of zero proof spirits—I am particularly fond Ritual Zero Proof’s “tequila” variation we use in this drink. It is spicy and peppery and has a great rich texture. That paired with zesty yellow bell pepper juice, lemon, and honey makes a bright and thirst-quenching non-alcoholic drink that goes above and beyond your standard virgin Mojito.” Bar Julian Beverage Director Chelsea DeMark.
