- Mocktails are all about the presentation. Use fresh mint leaves, lime wedges, or sugar rims to add visual appeal.
- Serve your mocktails in stylish glassware to elevate the overall presentation.
- In case you don’t have Sprite, use club soda or sparkling water. Club soda is carbonated water without any added flavors or sweeteners, so you should add sweeteners to the mocktail. To sweeten the virgin mojito, you may muddle granulated sugar or simple syrup with lime wedges and mint leaves.
