Non alcoholic Apple Mojito, Virgin Apple Mojito recipe
Virgin Apple Mojito is a super refreshing and tasty drink, perfect for beating the summer heat. It’s a non-alcoholic drink that brings together the sweetness of apple, the tanginess of lime, and the cool freshness of mint. All this is topped off with fizzy sparkling apple juice to make it bubbly and fun!
Common Ingredients & What They Do:
-
Apple – Brings natural sweetness and a crisp flavor. Green or red apples both work, depending on your preference.
-
Lime – Adds a zesty and tangy punch that balances the sweetness.
-
Mint Leaves – Adds a cool, refreshing aroma and taste that makes the drink feel extra fresh.
-
Sugar – Lightly sweetens the drink, especially helpful if your apple or juice isn’t sweet enough.
-
Sparkling Apple Juice (or Apple Juice + Plain Soda ) – Gives the drink a fizzy, refreshing finish that makes it feel special.
Steps to Make:
-
Add Ingredients to Glass/Bowl
Put small apple chunks, lime wedges, mint leaves, and sugar into a glass or serving bowl. -
Muddle (Gently Crush)
Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the ingredients. This releases the juices and flavors from the fruits and mint. -
Add Ice Cubes
Toss in a few ice cubes to chill the drink instantly. -
Pour Sparkling Apple Juice
Slowly pour in the chilled sparkling apple juice (or mix of apple juice + plain soda) until it nearly reaches the top of the glass. Give it a good stir. -
Garnish and Serve
Top it off with a few fresh mint leaves and a slice or wedge of lime. Serve right away and enjoy the cool burst of flavor!
Tips and Tricks for More Flavor:
-
Use chilled ingredients for an instantly cool drink.
-
Use brown sugar or honey instead of white sugar for a deeper sweetness.
-
Add a dash of chat masala or black salt if you like a little tangy twist.
-
Let the apple and lime sit with sugar for a few minutes before adding sparkling apple juice – this helps pull out more flavor.
Serving Suggestions:
-
Serve in tall glasses with a straw for a café-style feel.
-
Great as a welcome drink for guests at a summer party.
-
You can even make a big pitcher for gatherings – just add the fizzy juice right before serving to keep the bubbles fresh.
