Herbal Mocktail - Mojito

Ingredients:

• 5 mL of our organic herbal bitters for liver, gut, & overall digestive health
• 4 limes
• 1 cup fresh spearmint leaves
• 4 tablespoons raw honey
• A pinch of sea salt
• 3 cups brewed spearmint tea, cooled
• 2 cups sparkling water

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:

• Start by washing the limes and spearmint leaves thoroughly.
• Cut the limes into quarters, and set aside a few spearmint leaves for garnishing later.

2. Muddle the Mint:

• In a large pitcher, add the fresh spearmint leaves.
• Using a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon, gently muddle the mint to release its essential oils.

3. Juice the Limes:

• Juice the limes and add the juice to the pitcher with the muddled mint.

4. Sweeten the Mix:

• Add the raw honey and herbal bitters to the pitcher.
• Whisk together the lime juice, muddled mint, and honey until well combined.

5. Add the Sea Salt:

• Sprinkle in a pinch of sea salt and whisk again to ensure it's evenly distributed.

Brew and Add the Tea:

• Brew the spearmint tea and let it cool completely.
• Pour the cooled tea into the pitcher and stir the mixture well.

6. Top it Off:

• Just before serving, add the sparkling water to the pitcher. This gives your mojito a delightful fizz.
• Stir gently to combine.

7. Prepare the Glasses:

• To serve, ensure no crushed mint gets into the drink by using a fine strainer if necessary.
• Line the rim of each cup with a lime wedge and dip it into sea salt for a zesty touch.

8. Serve and Enjoy:

• Fill your glasses with ice if desired and pour the herbal mojito over the top.
• Garnish with a few reserved spearmint leaves and a slice of lime for a beautiful presentation.

Tips and Variations:

• Make it Sweeter: Adjust the amount of honey to your taste. You can also experiment with other natural sweeteners like agave syrup or stevia.
• Chill Your Ingredients: For an extra refreshing drink, make sure all your ingredients, including the tea and sparkling water, are well chilled before mixing.
