#1 The Grapefruit Basil Mojito 

Non-alcoholic, safe for kids and made with club soda.

Serves 2 (6oz. glasses)

1 Tablespoon brown sugar

6 Basil leaves – 3 per each glass

In a Ziploc bag add all of the above ingredients. Squeeze the limes in the bag and keep the peels on. Place the mixture in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours so the flavors can absorb into each other.
