Ingredients
  

For the Mocktail
  • 1 cup Tart Cherry Juice Provides a deliciously tangy flavor; substitute with regular cherry juice for a sweeter option.
  • 1 cup Club Soda/Sparkling Water Adds fizz to the drink; ginger ale can give it a spicy kick.
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice Brightens flavors; fresh is best, but bottled can work in a pinch.
For the Garnish
  • 3 pieces Fresh Cherries Enhances the drink's appearance; beautiful and deliciously tied to the tart cherry theme.
  • 2 sprigs Fresh Mint Adds aroma and visual appeal; dried mint can be a good alternative if fresh isn’t available.
  • 1 slice Lime Wedge A classic finishing touch that complements the flavors of the mocktail.
