Can I drink this keto Jallab mocktail while fasting?

Yes, you can! If you're skipping the sweetener and tea (or using a caffeine-free herbal version), this drink can fit into most clean fasting windows. It’s great after Iftar too, especially during Ramadan, if you're avoiding sugar-heavy drinks like traditional Jallab.

What can I use instead of almond milk in this keto mocktail?

You can use unsweetened macadamia milk, coconut milk (from the carton, not the can), or even a splash of light cream if dairy fits your keto plan. Just keep it low-carb. These swaps still keep the drink in the Best Mocktail Recipe category for the keto diet crowd.

Is this Jallab mocktail okay for kids or non-keto guests?

Absolutely! It’s one of those Mocktails Non Alcoholic that tastes good enough to serve to anyone, kids, non-keto friends, even picky relatives. Just make sure the sweetener you use isn’t bitter or overpowering, and consider adding a little more if they’re used to sweeter drinks.
