This is the ultimate drink of the SUMMER in a glass. I am completely in love with this non-alcoholic mojito tasting drink. It’s perfect for a summer party or a Memorial day gathering with family and friends. Refreshing taste will set your mood to a relaxing one. Give it a try this weekend.
Ingredients
- Freshly squeezed juice of 1 large lemon
- 2 sliced strawberries
- 1 cup of ice cubes
- 2.5 cups of ice water
- 1/4 cup of granulated or any sugar of your choice
- half a teaspoon of kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons of local or wild honey
- 5-6 roughly chopped sweet basil leaves (or mint leaves)
Instructions
- In a glass jar, start by adding 1 cup of ice
- Next, add freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Add 1/4cup of granulated sugar
- 2 sliced strawberries
- Add in the sweet basil leaves
- Pour 2.5 cups of Ice water to the Jar
- Add freshly crushed sea salt and with a large spoon mix all the ingredients.
- Lastly add in a tablespoon of honey and mix well. The honey will thicken because of the cold ice water but with your finger scrape it off the spoon into the jar.
- To serve, add some more ice cubes, sliced strawberries, basil leaves and drizzle a bit of honey on top. (a tablespoon of honey is good for 2 glasses of the drink)
- Enjoy the crisp taste of summer in a glass.
