Welcome to the Spirited Sip, a blog dedicated to fun, flirty and delicious non-alcoholic drinks that boost your body and mind.
Who am I?
My name is Ksenia Prints, and I am a food blogger and photographer. I love creating unique recipes and capturing captivating beverage images to satisfy your thirst and delight your senses.
I am a mother to junior drink lover Leo and Lin and wife to F., who prefers to remain behind the scenes - but you can bet he helps me out by tasting, advising, assembling tripods, and too many things to count.
See the answers to some of your most burning questions in my FAQ.

Why is this blog called The Spirited Sip?
I believe that non-alcoholic drinks can be fun, feisty, and invigorating, good for our health, our bodies, and our souls. We associate "spirits" with alcoholic drinks, but at The Spirited Sip, we wanted to showcase how any well-crafted drink can be a source of joy, excitement, and nourishment. Everything from mocktails to coffee and an array of other healthy drinks that can be prepared at home.

How does The Spirited Sip have something for everyone?
The Spirited Sip blog is focused on non-alcoholic beverages for all. Here, there is something for everyone. Everything from coffees, teas, flavored hot chocolates to mocktails and juices. Even healthy elixirs, milkshakes, and more. Truly a blog to accommodate all palates, seasons, and festivities.

Broaden your horizons through your drinks
The beauty of such a large array of unique, non-alcoholic beverages is that they can help open you up to new, exciting experiences. But they can also serve as a comforting addition to everyday life. A refreshing, cool drink condensation coating the glass on the beech during the summer months or curl up on the couch with a delicious hot chocolate during the frostier months.
