Virgin Mojito takes all the freshness of the original Mojito without the alcohol. Far from being a depleted version, this well-made mocktail fully reveals the aromas of mint and lime. The quality of the ingredients is even more decisive here than in the alcoholic version.
Preparation
Place the mint in the glass. Add lemon juice and syrup.
Muddle gently to release essential oils.
Fill with crushed ice.
Pour in cold sparkling water.
Mix gently from bottom to top.
Taste and adjust sugar/acidity.
Top with a sprig of mint and a wedge of lime.
Add 0.5 cl of fresh ginger juice for complexity, or a dash of pomegranate for color. Sparkling water must be very cold and of high quality.
