Raspberry Mojito

Place mint leaves and fresh raspberries in a tall glass.

Slice the lime into wedges. Squeeze lime wedges straight into the glass and drop them into the glass.

Add 1 tablespoon of simple syrup for sweetness. You can adjust the amount to taste if you like your mojito more on the sweet side.

Gently muddle mint leaves, lime wedges, and raspberries to release their aroma and flavor.

Fill the glass with ice cubes, making sure it's about 2/3 full.

Top off the glass with sparkling water or club soda water to give the mocktail a light and bubbly finish.

Give the drink a gentle stir to combine all the goodness.

Garnish with raspberries, a mint sprig, and lime wedges.
