Mocktails • Recipes • Safety Tips

These delicious nonalcoholic drink mocktails, recipes, and safety tips are part of the Celebrate Safely, Designate a Driver and Recipes for the Road campaigns. The FDOT District Two Community Traffic Safety Program has produced unique mocktails and shared nonalcoholic drinks from local Northeast Florida restaurants and bars since 1998. In 2017, we introduced alcohol-free recipe videos for the 20th Annual Recipes for the Road. Since then, we have made various recipe videos to promote celebrating safely.

Seasonal Mocktails, Recipes, and Traffic Safety Tips

We hope you watch, share, and enjoy our alcohol-free drink recipes, appetizer and meal recipes, and safe ABCs of partying tips below. EVEN ONE DRINK of alcohol can slow your reflexes and reaction time, reduce your ability to see clearly, and make you less alert. Be a part of a safety culture focused on preventing injuries and fatalities on our roads.

Please be responsible! If you’ve been drinking, designate a sober driver or call a cab or rideshare service. If you are hosting a party, offer guests alcohol-free beverage options and food, and make sure they have a safe ride home!

Please help spread the message of celebrating safely with these cool summer “Recipes for the Road.” Download and share these traffic safety tips and recipes.

Recipes For The Road Card

In 2021, we distributed Summer Celebrate Safely “Recipes for the Road” cards printed as double-sided, 5.5″ x 8.5″ handouts in full color. They were available for our Northeast Florida Traffic Safety Team members, partners, organizations, and local communities.

In 2019, there were almost 2,000 reported crashes, with 109 fatalities involving impaired driving throughout the Northeast Florida district. That is 109 deaths that could have been prevented. This summer and throughout the year, remember to celebrate safely always!
