Non Alcoholic Raspberry Mojito
Ingredients
3-4 fresh raspberries plus more for garnish
5-6 mint leaves
2 tbsp simple syrup see directions below for how to make a simple syrup
ice
1/4 cup raspberry juice or can use cran-raspberry juice
2 tbsp fresh lime juice approx. 1/2 medium-large lime
1/2 cup club soda or sparkling mineral water
Try this delicious non alcoholic Raspberry Mojito which combines fresh raspberries, juicy lime and crisp mint.
Instructions
To make a simple syrup, combine 1 cup granulated sugar with 1 cup water (or just equal parts, if making more or less) in a medium sauce pan.
Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until sugar is completely dissolved. Allow to cool.
In a tall glass, add raspberries, mint leaves and the simple syrup.
Muddle (squish with the back of a wooden spoon) well until the mint, simple syrup and raspberries are well-combined. If possible, try not to break apart the mint leaves, as this (in my opinion) will make for a less pleasant drinking experience.
Fill glass with ice.
Add raspberry juice, then the lime juice, and then fill with soda.
Garnish with lime wedge or additional raspberries, if desired.
