Ingredients

• 50 ml Alcohol-free gin alternative
• 25 ml fresh lime juice, plus a wheel to garnish
• 20 ml Simple syrup (1:1 sugar and water)
• 5 mint leaves, plus a small sprig to garnish
• Ice

Method

1. Chill a coupe glass. Press the mint leaves gently into the syrup in the bottom of a shaker, just enough to bruise them.
2. Add the alcohol-free gin and lime juice and fill the shaker with ice.
3. Shake hard for about 15 seconds.
4. Double strain into the cold glass so no mint bits get through, then float the lime wheel and mint sprig on top.

Tips

• No alcohol-free gin? Use 50 ml chilled tonic water and stir it in at the end instead of shaking it.
• Grate a little lime zest into the syrup for an extra-zesty glass.
