I really need this to help me at an upcoming party! And I'm asking this because I'm underage and my parents would KILL me if they found out I really was drinking! Also I wanna look "cool" or whatever.

Douse alcohol or your clothes. rinse some in your mouth and breath heavily on whoever you want to think you are drinking. Take a good bath and wash your clothes before you go home. Son, is that you?

I have the same problem. Although I'm definitely old enough to drink, I hate it and it makes me sick. You shouldn't be uncomfortable about not drinking, but it does make you stand out at social events, weddings, clubs, etc. It is also uncomfortable and tiring to keep explaining to everyone that you do not drink. And it also seems to make quite a few others uncomfortable. So I have just decided it is easier to look as if I'm imbibing along with the croud. Some of the "faux" drinks I have developed are as follows:
1. Orange Juice with grenadine and 7up with a couple of cherries. Tasty! And the bartender is mixing this so it looks legit. (just be sure no one hears your order)
2. Of course the non-alcoholic beer is great. Just ask for a glass and pour it in asap. Dispose of the bottle even it it's still half full.
3. Any kind of soft drink with a lime and swizzle stick will look like a cocktail.
4. If no one can hear you ordering, you can get a virgin anything. Margarita, Pina Colada to name a few.
5. You can order tonic water with a shot of sour apple in a martini glass to look like an apple martini.
The variations are endless. Enjoy yourself. You are definitely doing the right thing by not drinking.

lots of mixed drinks are made with cranberry juice or orange juice. Ginger ale could look like beer. Alcohol doesn't make you look cool. cool is how you act everyday, how you treat people etc. You may not feel cool if the party is raided due to underage drinking. Your parents may Kill you for just running with a crowd that drinks. There is lots to consider here besides just being cool.

why would you want to pretend that you are drinking it doesnt make you cool to drink at any age it just destroys your body and your mind stand up for yourself and just say no it may be hard now but if you resist and dont let other people influence you someday you will be glad that you did it is possible to be happy and have fun without drinking or trying to impress other people the people that matter will respect you for doing this right the ones that tease you and say you are not cool or try to persuade you to do this are shallow and have a long hard road ahead of them have fun at your party and remember it is your choice no one elses be strong have a good day

In the movies they use tea in place of whiskey. You can put a twist or cherry in your glass of soda to make people think it is a mixed drink. You can drink non alcoholic beer. But if you are choosing not to drink, you should not have to excuse yourself. It is quite OK to not drink. I think too much pressure is put on people to drink. I drink very little and just have seltzer or soda water. When other people are drinking, they usually don't realize that I am not.

If you're at a bar and trying to look like you are drinking order drinks in cocktail glasses like a bucket or higball and just fill it with soda or diet coke. If anyone asks just tell them it's a rum and coke or vodka/tonic or something of that nature. You could even go as far as to order orange juice in a tall glass with grenadine and tell people you are drinking tequila sunrises. Also, virgin blended drinks like margaritas, pina coladas, daquiris, etc.

Drinking doesn't make you cool it makes you stupid . But if you just have sprite or something and sip on that others will think you have a drink , if anyone gives you a hard time over it they probably are not friends anyway .
Don't ever feel pressered into anything , that's dumb .

Go to the bathroom and take a beer can with you. Empty out the beer and fill the can with cold tap water. That said, be careful! There's a reason your parents don't want you drinking.

I like Satindoll's answer the best. Don't be a poseur and fake it. You've made the choice to be responsible and not drink underage. Stand behind your decision. Its nothing to be ashamed of.

Drink sparkling water with a twist of lemon, looks like vodka tonic on the rocks with a twist
