Orange Mocktail

I usually browse for new beverages/juices and this one caught my eye one fine day. The tangy taste of orange combined with lime with a hint of soda...hmm it was so refreshing!! When I googled to find more about mocktail I found it easy to understand mocktail as non-alcoholic cocktail :)
Recipe




Ingredients:

Makes 1 cup
  • Orange Juice - 1 Cup
  • Lemon Juice - 1/4 Cup
  • Sugar - 2 tbsp (or adjust according to your taste)
  • Water - 1/4 Cup
  • Soda - 1/4 cup(optional)
Method:
  1. Filter the juice alone from oranges.
  2. Combine all the ingredients and stir well.


Recipe
My Notes:
  • If you want add crushed ice before serving
  • Also garnish with freshly cut oranges
  • I used demerera sugar for coating the rim of the glass, you can use normal white sugar also
Recipe
For coating the serving glass with sugar :
  • For presenting the serving glass coated with sugar.
  • Take a small plate, spread athin layer of sugar over it.
  • Dip the rim of the glass with orange juice, or any citrus juice then turn over the glass and rotate it in the sugar evenly.
