Ingredients:
1/4 cup mint leaves
2 ounces honey syrup (see recipe below)
1 1/2 ounces lime juice
Chilled club soda or sparkling mineral water
Honey syrup:
1 1/2 cups raw honey
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (or Young Living's Lime vitality oil)
1/2 tsp grated lime zest
Honey Syrup:
In a small saucepan, combine the honey, water, lime juice and lime zest. Cook over medium heat stirring occasionally until boiling. Continue to boil until the mixture is reduced by a fourth. Cool.
Mojito:
In 12-ounce glass, muddle mint and simple syrup for about 8 seconds. Add ice and lime juice, then fill with club soda or sparkling mineral water. Stir well and serve. Enjoy!
Note: if you want to avoid making the honey syrup, just use coconut nectar instead ... it is made by Coconut Secret. Great low glycemic sweetener.
