Virgin Mojito Recipe
Description
This Virgin Mojito Recipe starts by muddling fresh spearmint leaves and lime wedges together to extract their natural flavors. Additional lime and sweetener are then muddled further, ensuring a balanced tart and sweet profile. Ice fills most of the glass before being topped with lemon-lime seltzer, which adds carbonation and brightness without alcohol.
The drink is garnished with mint sprigs and served with a straw, featuring a crisp, fresh taste where the citrus and mint harmonize. The method avoids straining, leaving small mint and lime bits for texture.
This beverage is well suited for those seeking a flavorful non-alcoholic option with clean, lively notes from natural ingredients. It's quick to prepare and pairs well with casual meals or as a stand-alone refreshment.
Ingredients
- 10 small spearmint leaves fresh
- 1/2 medium lime (cut into 3 wedges, divided)
- 1 tablespoon Monk Fruit Sweetener (stevia, or sugar)
- 7 ounces lemon-lime seltzer (club soda, or sugar-free lemon-lime soda)
- 1 cup ice cubes (as needed)
Instructions
- In a sturdy tall glass, place the mint leaves and 1 lime wedge. Use a muddler and crush the mint and lime to release mint oils and lime juice.
- Add remaining lime wedges and 1 tablespoon sugar, and muddle again to release the lime juice. Do not strain the mixture.
- Fill the glass almost to the top with ice and fill the glass with club soda.
- Stir and garnish with a few sprigs of mint. Serve with a straw.
