Spearmint Mojito (alcohol free cocktail)
This Spearmint Tea Mocktail is a refreshing and herbaceous drink that combines the crisp and cooling flavour of spearmint with the tanginess of lime and the sweetness of honey syrup. The addition of club soda gives the drink a little bit of fizz and lightness.
The longer you brew your mojito, the darker the colour will become from a light clear, to honey, to a slightly light green colour. Brewing time will affect the flavour, a quick brew will be less strong a longer brew will be more intense.
This mocktail is perfect for anyone who wants a refreshing and flavourful drink without the alcohol. The spearmint tea provides a subtle and refreshing flavour that is perfect for warm weather or for enjoying as a pre-dinner drink. The addition of honey syrup and fresh lime juice adds a little bit of sweetness and tartness that balances out the flavour of the tea.
Overall, the Spearmint Tea Mocktail is a refreshing and delicious drink that is perfect for anyone who enjoys the crisp and refreshing taste of spearmint. It's easy to make and can be customized to your taste preferences. Enjoy it as a pre-dinner drink or sip on it while lounging on the patio.
