Mixing up your own mint lemonade mocktail can free you from the routine of using expensive pre-made bases for your drinks. This fun summer drink helps you avoid alcohol and the health risks that come with regular consumption of beer or wine. Lemonade has the perfect refreshing taste for a picnic or hike during the warmer months, and making a mocktail for everyone to enjoy ensures you don’t have to worry about dehydration, either. Get the tips you need for the best possible mint lemonade mocktail made with our hemp-infused drinks.
What to Replace Alcohol With When Making Mocktails
If you’re tired of how drinking White Claw leaves you feeling bloated and dehydrated, it’s time to embrace the mocktail trend. Making alcohol-free drinks can help you take in fewer calories, resulting in less weight gain or even some weight loss. The challenge comes when you want to mimic the taste and effects of the alcoholic ingredients in a cocktail recipe. Using alcohol-free seltzer products like Find Wunder or Cann lets you get exactly the results you want. For example, our Lemon Lime flavor is perfect for blending with the citrus flavors of this mocktail recipe.
When to Make Mint Lemonade Mocktails
Like many other THC drinks, this mint lemonade mocktail is ideal for enjoying all by yourself at the end of a long day. It’ll help you unwind and deal with stress without the risks of causing a hangover like you might get from light beer. As a social tonic, this minty mocktail will add a fun element to any party or celebration you’re hosting during the warmer months of the year. If you’re a fan of Rose wine, this sour mocktail is a great replacement for it. Try a more carbonated mocktail if the Aperol spritz is your style.
Serving Your Mocktails with Style
When you make a fine mocktail, you’ll need to choose a fancier way of serving it than popping open a can of Bud Light or High Noon. Try mixing up your lemonade and THC seltzer and then pouring the mocktail into handled Mason jars for a hint of country fun. Or invest in a set of coupe-style glasses for serving your favorite cannabis beverages over ice. Consider thin slices of lemon perched on the rim or sugar edging to add a little extra sweetness to every sip.
Mint Lemonade Mocktail Recipe
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 20 minutes
- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Serves: 10 12-ounce servings
- Calories: 37 calories per serving
Ingredients
- 2 cans of Find Wunder Sessions Lemon Lime (5 mg of THC per can), or your favorite THC-infused drink
- 5 cups of cold water
- 6 fresh lemons or ¼ cup of fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup of granulated sugar
- 30 to 40 fresh mint leaves or one bundle with the stems removed
- Ice cubes to cool (optional)
Mix up a simple syrup. Heat ½ cup of the water in a small pot and dissolve the ¼ cup of sugar into it. You can double the sugar for a sweeter lemonade, but keep in mind that the calories will also increase.
Juice the lemons, making sure you aren’t adding any seeds to the mix. Zest a small amount of the lemon peel off and add it to the juice.
Combine the simple syrup with the lemon juice, Find Wunder, and the other 4.5 cups of water. Stir well. Add the ice cubes if you want to cool it quickly, or let it cool in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.
To serve, place five or so fresh mint leaves in each glass. Muddle the leaves in the bottom of the glass until they’re crushed, then pour in the lemonade and stir before serving.
