Lusty Lime is a sharp, fizzy virgin mocktail made with fresh lime, mint and chilled soda. It is quick enough for a weekday drink and bright enough for a party table.
Ingredients
- 30 ml fresh lime juice
- 15 ml simple syrup or 2 teaspoons sugar
- 8 mint leaves
- Ice cubes
- Chilled soda water
- Lime wheel and mint sprig to garnish
Method
- Gently muddle mint with lime juice and syrup in a glass.
- Fill with ice and top with chilled soda water.
- Stir once, taste and add a little more syrup if needed.
- Garnish with a lime wheel and mint.
Tips and serving
Use fresh lime rather than bottled juice and avoid crushing the mint too hard, which can make it bitter. Prepare the lime mixture ahead, but add ice and soda just before serving.
