Marissa's MediterraneanA bright, floral, and fizzy mocktail that brings the essence of a Mediterranean garden straight to your glass. Perfect for cooling down on a sunny afternoon.
In a small pitcher or glass, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, honey, and rose water until the honey is completely dissolved.
If your honey is too thick, warm it for 5 seconds in the microwave first.
Place the fresh mint leaves in the bottom of your serving glass and lightly press them with a spoon to release their aromatic oils.
Don't shred the leaves, just a gentle bruise will do!
Add the ice cubes to the glass, then pour the lemon-rose mixture over the ice.
Top with sparkling water and give it a very gentle stir to combine. Garnish with a fresh lemon slice and serve immediately.
For a bit of extra flair, you can rim the glass with a little bit of honey and crushed dried rose petals. If you want it less sweet, swap the honey for a splash of pomegranate juice!
