It's true... E and I enjoy the adult beverage more than "on occasion"... especially in the summertime. As such, TTC - and the TWW in particular, would feel even more torturous if I wasn't able to, at least, feel like I was joining in the fun around me.
For those of you interested, here is our no-fail recipe:
3 limes (we use the biggest we can find, so if you have small ones, you may want to double)
1/2 c. sugar
1 package fresh mint (~.75 oz)
3/4 bottle soda water (~24 oz)
Put the mint at the bottom of the pitcher and crush w/ wooden spoon. Juice limes into pitcher. Add sugar & stir. Add soda just before serving. Pour over ice. Enjoy. (For those of you who need your booze, use 1/2 bottle soda & one cup of clear rum. For those of you looking to cut calories, use S.plenda instead of sugar.) Makes 4-6 servings.

That sounds delicious! Here's hoping that you have to drink that for the next 10 months ;-)
indeed. sorry if this is a silly question, but what is "1 pkg mint"??
Sorry, 1 pkg mint = 1 package of fresh mint. The package I use is 3/4 oz. Not a silly question at all. I will change the recipe.
Or use simple syrup instead of sugar.... no grainy issues.
*cheers*
(mine's got rum in it)
Tasty Tasty - thanks a million for sharing. Here's to non-alcoholic mojitos in the coming year!!
I haven't had a Mojito, but it sounds like a splenda idea. Splenda.....whatever that is...but I'm hoping that it refers to splendid news AND libations! Be well. Love you. Dad
Yummy. I'm definitely adding rum to mine!
I am just so happy about this recipe! I, too, like to partake of the salted beverage now and then and This - THIS will curb my appetite!
