FAQs
What Kind of Mint Should I Use for a Mocktail?
The most commonly used mint variety for mocktails is spearmint. Spearmint has a pleasantly sweet taste and a strong minty aroma.
Can I Make This Mocktail Ahead of Time?
Mocktails are best enjoyed freshly made, as the carbonation will go flat but you can prepare the mixture (without Sprite and ice) and refrigerate it until you’re ready to serve.
