A delightful, non-alcoholic concoction perfect for all ages, this homemade lime mint spritzer is not only simple to make but incredibly flavorful. Even the little ones in the family will enjoy this refreshing treat.
Ingredients
- 1 handful of freshly picked mint leaves
- 1 small lime
- 1.5 liters of “Sprite” soda
- Sugar or mint syrup (optional, for adjusting sweetness)
- Ice cubes
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Begin by peeling the lime and cutting it into smaller, manageable pieces.
Take a handful of mint leaves, rinse them thoroughly, and combine them with the lime pieces.
Pour approximately 50 ml of Sprite into the mixture and finely grind everything into a smooth, cohesive mass. Alternatively, use a hand blender for this step. Strain the mixture through a sieve to ensure a smooth liquid consistency.
In a glass, pour about 40 ml of the vibrant green juice, then fill the glass with ice cubes. Add a lime slice for an extra citrusy touch.
Finish off by pouring ice-cold Sprite over the contents of the glass. Mint enthusiasts can enhance the drink by adding additional mint leaves for both flavor and decoration together with lime slices.
