Mint Mojito Mocktail

I was going over a few recipes in Elana Amsterdam’s book, “Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry” and came across: Mojito Mocktail and had to give it a try. It is so refreshing for summertime and very addicting!!

 

Ingredients

• 2 cups ice cubes
• 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh mint leaves
• 3 limes
• 1/8 tsp stevia (I used organic sugar)
• 1 cup water
• 1 quart sparkling water
• Lime slices, garnish- optional
• Mint sprigs, garnish- optional

Directions

1. Prepare 4 glasses by placing 1/2 cup of the ice in each, set aside
2. In a high-powered blender, puree the mint, limes, stevia, and water until smooth
3. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer to remove the pulp
4. Pour 1/4 cup of the mojito mixture into each glass with sparkling water and stir
5. Garnish each glass with a slice of lime and a sprig of mint and serve
6. Guten Appetit!
