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.
