How about hot cider?  It always seems to make littles I know happy.  And
if you only really use it when camping they might think of it as a
special treat.

Those interested in drinks like the sekanjabin might be interested in this
file in my SCA Rialto Files:
beverages-NA-msg  (63K)  7/30/96    Non-alcoholic beverages.

There are several recipes for sekanjabin and similar drinks in this file
as well as other interesting non-alcoholic drinks.

I do have several files on cider, but it appears you are talking about
soft ciders rather than hard.
