Although I don’t drink alcohol, I do still make some of the classic drinks because of the great flavors that come together. One of my favorites is a mint mojito. I instantly feel refreshed and in a summer state of mind, which is definitely necessary on a Monday!

Virgin Mint Mojito:
15 mint leaves
1 teaspoon raw sugar
1 ounce fresh lime juice
1/2 ounce simple syrup

4 ounces chilled ginger ale (you can use club soda or sparkling water as well)
