Try a 7up or soda water with a splash of grenadine and/or bitters, maybe with a twist of lime or lemon. If you like bitter, ask for tonic water instead. If you think you can stomach just a bit of alcohol, ask for 1 oz. of red vermouth in it. It is infused with a lot of flavour, but it has a much lower alcohol content than hard liquor (18% vs. 40% or more). But if I were you, I'd have no more than 2 oz. in total in two drinks.

Also, if you want something fancier, order a Mojito without the rum. It's called a Nojito.
