Virgin Strawberry Mojito
- In a small saucepan, combine ⅛ cup honey and ¼ cup sparkling water, simmer for two minutes, and let cool. Then, add strawberries and lemon juice to a glass and muddle together (if you’d like to add some mint or basil as an additional flavor, add these now and muddle together with strawberries).

Notes
- Tip for the virgin strawberry mojito: Any sparkling water will work well in this refreshing strawberry mojito mocktail, but if you'd like to always have some handy, we recommend getting yourself a SodaStream. We use ours every day and absolutely love it!
- Suggestion: If you enjoy these, you're gonna love our watermelon lemonade with rosemary!
