Morning Mojito

 

Serves: 6

 

*1/2 cup dark honey

 

*1/2 cup fresh lime juice

 

*1/2 cup firmly packed fresh mint leaves

 

*2 cups fresh grapefruit juice, chilled

 

*2 cups fresh orange juice, chilled

 

*2 teaspoons grated lime zest

 

*1 lime, cut into 6 slices

 

In a small saucepan, combine the honey and lime juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Add the mint leaves and remove from heat.

 

Steep the honey mixture for 5 minutes, then pass the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve placed over a bowl, pressing down lightly on the leaves with the back of a wooden spoon. Refrigerate the syrup until cold.

 

In a large pitcher, combine the mint syrup, grapefruit and orange juices and lime zest. Stir until the syrup is dissolved.

 

Pour into tall, chilled glasses and garnish each glass with a lime slice.
