Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 of a fresh lemon
- Several fresh mint leaves
- Ice cubes
- 1 12-oz. can sparkling water or club soda
- 1/2 – 1 dropper of liquid lemon flavored stevia (or other liquid low calorie sweetener of choice)
Instructions
- Cut off the bottom of the lemon and squeeze the juice from it into a 16-oz. glass. Cut a couple more slices of lemon and squeeze them into the glass as well.
- Take some of the mint leaves and rub them in your hands to release the oils, then and add them to the glass as well. Take a spoon and muddle the mint leaves and lemon around a bit. Add some ice to the glass so the glass is about half full of ice and lemons.
- Pour some of the sparkling water into the glass (so it’s about half full), then add the stevia, then fill the rest of the glass with the sparkling water. Gently stir and take a taste, adding more sweetener if needed. Garnish with a sprig of mint and/or a lemon slice and enjoy!
