Mojito Mocktail Recipe
This mojito mocktail recipe makes the perfect summer drink! This easy virgin cocktail is loaded with incredible flavor from fresh mint and citrusy lime juice.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp homemade simple syrup
- 1 lime quartered
- 8-10 mint leaves
- 1/2 cup ice
- 1 cup sparkling water
- 1/2 lime sliced to garnish
Instructions
- To each glass, squeeze the quartered lime, add the mint, and simple syrup.
- Muddle the mint using a muddler or a spoon.
- Add the ice and top with sparkling water.
- Garnish with lime wheels and mint leaves, optional.
Notes
- When you wash your mint, lightly slap the mint. This may sound silly, but it activated the flavor of the mint leaves.
- Make a large batch by multiplying the recipe and adding to a punch bowl.
- This mocktail is best when enjoyed immediately because of the carbonated sparkling water.
