Strawberry Basil Mojito, Non- Alcoholic Instant Mojito
by Tarla Dalal
The herby kick of basil together with the intoxicatingly fruity sweetness of strawberry makes this non-alcoholic party drink a great hit with all guests.
This quick and easy drink is muddled together using a pestle, which gives it a very interesting mouth-feel. A pinch of salt, some lemon juice and a good dose of chilled sprite make it immensely refreshing.
Serve the Strawberry Basil Mojito immediately after preparation as it will tend to lose its fizz and flavour over time.
You can also try other fruit-based party drinks like the Guava Mojito or Watermelon Mojito .
