Equipment

  • Muddler or wooden spoon

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoon blackcurrant cordial
  • 2 tablespoon apple juice
  • 4 mint leaves and more to garnish
  • ice
  • 1 tablespoon frozen berries optional

Instructions

  • Clap the mint between your hands to release the essence.
  • Place the mint in your glasses, then press with a muddler or the end of a wooden spoon.
  • Add ice to your glasses, then pour in the blackcurrant cordial and apple juice (equally between the glasses). Top with sparkling water or soda and stir gently.
  • Garnish with mint leaves and some frozen berries, if you wish. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • I suggest not skipping the step to clap the mint as this releases the essence and flavours the mocktail.
  • The mocktail will initially fizz up, but will soon settle. Add your garnishes of extra mint leaves and berries once it has settled.
  • Check the ingredients of your cordial if you are sensitive to lemon juice or other ingredients. Some brands will include this in the cordial.
  • Please note that nutritional information is offered as a courtesy. It is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
