Had my first mock-tail tonight. It was hard to order a mocktail without drawing attention to myself. When I said I wanted "a mocktail -- like whatever you can make fastest that looks like it has alcohol in it, but doesn't, that's what I want," I confused the crap out of the bartender.
Mocktail should be a fairly well-known term in the bar industry.
Whatever.
Then the bartender starting asking me why I wanted a mocktail. How's about it's none of your Goddamn business. What if I was an alcoholic?
Anyway, I did, eventually, get my mocktail without anyone noticing. Happy hour with the team. Success.

Something great that I've leared is to ask for Sprite in a highball glass with a lime (tell them you don't want it in a stupid pint glass).
That's exactly what I was going to say. Plus, no caffeine.
