FAQ

Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh ones?

Yes, frozen raspberries can be used, but fresh raspberries tend to impart a more vibrant flavor and color to the mocktail.

Is there a substitute for lime in this recipe?

Lemon juice can be used as a substitute for lime if preferred. It will provide a slightly different citrus profile but still complements the raspberries and mint.

How can I make this mocktail sweeter without using sugar?

Instead of sugar, try adding a splash of natural sweeteners like agave syrup, honey, or a sugar-free alternative to adjust sweetness to your liking.

Can I prepare a larger batch of this mocktail for a gathering?

Certainly! Scale up the ingredients accordingly and mix the mocktail in a pitcher for serving a larger group.

Are there variations to this mocktail?

Experiment by adding other berries like strawberries or blackberries for a different fruity twist. For a more herbal note, try infusing the drink with basil alongside or instead of mint.
