Summer Drinks + Sparkling Mint Lemonade Recipe

How is everyone enjoying their long weekend? It's been a very nice day here in the SF Bay Area. It's still somewhat cold, but with lots of sun today. Makes you want to have a Margherita or some other tropical drink, but since I can't have alcohol for three more months I had to come up with something different. It's a Mojito style drink but without alcohol. Very refreshing. I'll share the recipe at the end of the post. For now look at this mouth watering Summer drinks that I've found:

They all look good, don't they? I think they look great (and sure they taste better) for a summer wedding or party. So now onto the Sparkling Mint Lemonade recipe. You will need:

- 2 Limes

- Sugar or sugar substitute

- Sparkling Water

- Fresh Mint

First pour sugar onto a plate. Cut one lime and pass it over your glass, now take the glass and put into the sugar in the plate. This is only to garnish your glass. Squeeze the lime into the glass, add sugar as desired and a few fresh mint leaves. I get mine from our garden, so they area always fresh! Smash the mint a little bit and then add ice and sparkling water. You're ready, now enjoy!
