Are you tired of the freezing temperatures outside? How about bringing some icy delight to your home? Today we will be making an alcohol-free version of the classic mojito. We will give it a nice slushy texture and add a pink simple syrup instead of the sugar that is usually muddled with the mint and lime juice. Welcome to the world of mocktails, where we will introduce you to the delicious Frozen Dragon Fruit No-jito.
Frozen Dragon Fruit No-jito 🍹
Here are the ingredients you will need: 8-10 mint leaves
1 oz lime juice
2 oz lemonade
1/4 teaspoon Xanthan gum (this will give it the slushy texture)
A splash of seltzer water
1-2 cups of crushed ice
1 oz Dragon Fruit simple syrup (to give it a unique kick)
A slice of dragon fruit for garnishing
Preparation:
The preparation of this delightful mocktail is quite simple. Follow these steps:
In a mixing glass, add your mint leaves, lime juice, lemonade, Xanthan gum, and crushed ice. Transfer this mixture to a blender and give it a good blend until it reaches your desired consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add some more seltzer water to help with the blending.
Once you're satisfied with the consistency, transfer the slush to a glass of your choice. Now, it's time to top it up with 1 oz of Dragon fruit simple syrup. Don't forget to stir it before you take your first sip. It might not have the prettiest color after you stir it but trust me, it's absolutely delicious.
For the final touch, garnish your mocktail with a slice of dragon fruit. And there you have it, your own Frozen Dragon Fruit No-jito. It's best enjoyed while dreaming of sipping mojitos on a sunny beach.
