Instructions to Make the Kombucha Mojito
1. Prepare the Ingredients:

- Juice the lime to obtain fresh lime juice.
- Gather the kombucha, sugar, and ice cubes.
2. Muddle the Mint:
- Place the fresh mint leaves at the bottom of a sturdy glass.

3. Add Lime Juice and Sugar:

- Sprinkle the organic cane sugar into the glass.
- Stir gently to dissolve the sugar and infuse the mint flavor.
4. Add the Kombucha:

- Stir well to combine the ingredients.
5. Add the Ice:
- Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the drink and add a refreshing touch.
6. Optional: Top with Soda Water:
- For an extra fizzy and bubbly texture, top off the drink with a splash of soda water. This step is optional but adds effervescence to the mojito.
7. Garnish and Serve:
- Garnish the drink with a lime slice and a sprig of fresh mint for an appealing presentation.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the invigorating flavors of your homemade Kombucha Mojito.
Tips for the Best Kombucha Mojito
- Experiment with different flavors of kombucha to customize your mojito. Fruity or floral varieties can add unique dimensions to the drink.
- Adjust the sweetness and tartness by varying the amount of sugar and lime juice according to your taste preferences.
- To enhance the presentation, serve the mojito in a tall glass with a colorful straw.
- Fresh ingredients are key to achieving the best flavors, so use high-quality mint leaves and ripe limes.
