Mint at Dusk

Mint and lime give this NA rum pour a familiar fresh direction, but there’s no syrup here to make it automatically sweet. The bottle may bring some vanilla-like sweetness of its own. Press the mint gently with the lime, then add the rum alternative and sparkling water. Leaving the leaves mostly intact keeps the texture pleasant. This is a crisp, mint-scented drink for someone who enjoys the ritual without needing a sugary finish.

Ingredients

• 2 oz NA rum
• 4 oz Sparkling water
• 5 leaf Mint leaves
• 1/2 oz Lime juice

Make it

1. Add any fruit, herbs, spices, or syrup to a glass and gently press to release flavor.
2. Add the still liquids and ice. Stir to combine.
3. Pour in the sparkling ingredient slowly and stir once. Serve immediately.

Benefits

Lime · a little vitamin C

You get a small vitamin C contribution from lime in the NA rum and mint mixture, supporting normal immune function alongside a lively citrus tang.

A sparkling setting for mint

Pairing mint with NA rum and lime puts a fresh, cooling aroma into a fizzy glass, with bubbles making the texture part of the pleasure.

Check every NA product’s ABV. Choose clearly labeled 0.0% ingredients if you want to avoid trace alcohol.
