Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Fresh jalapeno
- 2 pieces Lime
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 cups Sparkling water
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 teaspoon Salt (optional, for rim)
- 1 piece Lime wedge (for garnish)
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Slice the jalapeno into thin rounds, removing seeds for less heat or keeping them in for extra spice.
Juice the limes into a small bowl or measuring cup to yield approximately 1/4 cup of fresh lime juice.
In a pitcher, combine the sliced jalapeno, lime juice, and honey. Stir well until the honey dissolves completely.
Add the sparkling water to the pitcher and gently stir to combine. Be careful not to over-stir and lose the carbonation.
If desired, rim the glasses with salt by rubbing a lime wedge around the rim and dipping it into a shallow dish of salt.
Fill each glass with ice cubes and pour the jalapeno lime spritzer over the ice.
Garnish with a lime wedge and fresh mint leaves, if using. Serve immediately and enjoy!
