Dark Cherry and Mint Fizz
Dark Cherry and Mint Fizz
This fruity and refreshing beverage isn’t overly sweet thanks to the natural tartness of the cherries and fresh lime juice. A touch of honey adds just the right amount of sweetness to balance out the more tart flavors, while fresh mint adds a bright note to bring it all together.
Ingredients
- 2 cups dark cherries pitted (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tbsps maple syrup
- 1 cup water
- ¼ cup lime juice fresh
- 1 cup mint leaves fresh, washed, patted dry, and torn
- 2 cups club soda
