Classic Non-Alcoholic
Nojito
Mojito, rum optional
Mint muddled with lime and sugar, lengthened with soda. The Mojito without the rum — still luminous, still the obvious choice for non-drinkers at a Cuban-themed party.
Ingredients
- 10 leaves Fresh Mint
- 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice
- 3/4 oz Simple Syrup
- 4 oz Soda Water
Method
Muddle mint leaves gently with simple syrup in the bottom of a highball. Add lime juice and ice. Top with soda water. Stir briefly. Garnish with a mint sprig.
