Description

A refreshing ginger citrus mocktail made with fresh lime, grapefruit juice, ginger, mint, and sparkling ginger beer. This vibrant non-alcoholic drink is crisp, fizzy, and packed with bright citrus flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Juice of 1 large lime
  • Juice of 1/2 large grapefruit or blood orange
  • 1 tsp freshly grated ginger pulp
  • 1 tbsp pure agave nectar or simple syrup
  • 1/2 cup non-alcoholic sparkling apple cider or club soda
  • 1/2 cup high-quality ginger beer
  • 3 to 4 fresh mint leaves, bruised
  • Ice cubes
  • Lime wheel for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add the grated ginger pulp and bruised mint leaves to a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker.
  2. Pour in the lime juice, grapefruit juice, and agave nectar.
  3. Add a handful of ice cubes.
  4. Shake vigorously for 15 to 20 seconds until well chilled.
  5. Fill a tall serving glass with fresh ice.
  6. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into the glass.
  7. Slowly pour in the ginger beer and sparkling apple cider or club soda.
  8. Gently stir once to combine.
  9. Garnish with a lime wheel if desired.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

For a deeper color and slightly sweeter flavor, substitute blood orange juice for grapefruit juice. Serve immediately after adding the carbonation to preserve maximum fizz.
