Ingredients
- 10-15 mint leaves
- ½ of a medium lime cut into 4-6 wedges

- 6-8 ounces lime sparkling water
Instructions

- Fill the glass with ice.
- Top with lime sparkling water and stir to combine.

Notes
Recipe Variations and Substitutions
- Choose a different sweetener. Simple syrup or honey simple syrup are both great substitutes for the agave syrup. If desired, you could also try pure maple syrup.
- Use a different sparkling water. If preferred, you could replace the lime seltzer water with club soda or a regular seltzer water.Â
- Try ginger ale instead of lime sparkling water. Add a little pop of ginger (and some additional sweetness) to your drink by using ginger ale.
- Add "mix-ins". Try a different flavor mojito mocktail by muddling in a few "mix-ins" like fresh strawberries for a strawberry mojito mocktail or cucumber slices for a cucumber mojito mocktail.Â
- Add zero proof rum or rum extract to your drink. If desired, add in a shot of non-alcoholic rum or few drops of rum extract.
