Sparkling Pear Mocktail
This delicious and refreshing pear mocktail pairs wonderfully with fresh mint, basil, and sparkling water.
Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup loose packed, fresh basil leaves
- 1/4 cup loose packed, fresh mint
- 1/2 cup pear juice (no added sugar)
- 18 oz plain sparkling water or soda water * I used Topo Chico
Instructions
- In a glass or bowl, combine 3 tablespoons mint and 3 tablespoons fresh basil leaves with the pear juice and smash with a muddler till you can really smell the mint and basil flavor.
- You can either strain the pear juice into two separate glasses or pour it all in with the herbs. I prefer to strain mine, then add the remaining 1 tbsp of the herbs to garnish.
- Top with topo chico (or soda/sparkling water of choice) and stir.
Notes
- Pear juice can be found with other juices at most grocery stores or health food stores.
- See post for suggestions on other recipes that use pear juice!
