Recipe- Cafe Style Virgin Mojito

Last week we went to a party where they were serving Virgin Mojitos. Virgin Mojito is a great summer drink. It is a mocktail that is made with lemon, mint, and soda/sprite. I am not much of a Mocktail person but this drink was so refreshing with its minty flavor that I had 2-3 glasses before I knew it.

Ingredients

8-10 fresh mint leaves
2 tsp sugar
1 lemon
Ice cubes as desired
200 ml Sprite
Fresh mint leaves to garnish

Method

- Chop the mint leaves.

- Cut the lemon into small wedges and remove the seeds carefully. Keep one aside for garnish.

To Muddle

- Crush mint leaves, sugar, and lemon wedges in a tall glass using a wooden spoon or muddler for lemons to release all their juice and to blend in the flavors.

- Add ice and top up with Sprite and mix well.

To Garnish

- Garnish with lemon slices and mint leaves.

- Serve chilled.
