Virjin Mojito

Virgin Mojito is a popular mocktail. It is very simple to make and quite refreshing.

Serves: 1

Prep. Time: 10 Mins.

Ingredients:

• Lime (deseeded & cut into wedges) – 1
• Fresh Mint Leaves – 10 to 12 small
• Sugar (granulated) – 1 ½ tbsp.
• Club Soda (chilled) – 150 ml
• Ice-cubes (crushed) – 12 to 15 small

Step 1:     Muddle the lime wedges, mint leaves and sugar with a cocktail muddler or a mortar & pestle and then put in a 250 ml (approx.) tall glass.

Step 2:     Add the crushed ice and top with soda. Stir and garnish with a sprig of mint and a slice of lemon.

Note:

• I have used granulated sugar because of its coarseness which helps the lime wedges and mint leaves release their flavours whilst muddling/crushing.
• I’ve use a glass bowl and pestle for muddling cause I couldn’t find my mudler.
