In just 2 minutes you can make this ginger beer mocktail using only 3 ingredients. Refreshing, sparkling and slightly sweet with lime, mint & ginger beer this is a grown-up drink - just without the alcohol.
Add lime wedges and mint leaves to a lowball/whiskey glass. Squeeze the lime wedges a bit before adding, to get some of the juice out from the start. Then muddle lime and mint until you've gotten most of the juice out of the lime.
Add ice cubes and fill up with ginger beer. Decorate with a sprig of mint, and serve immediately!
