In a sturdy glass or a cocktail shaker, place the mint leaves.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the mint leaves. Use one half of the lime for juicing and reserve the other half for garnishing if desired.
Add the honey to the glass or shaker. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently muddle the mint leaves, lime juice, and honey together. This releases the aromatic oils from the mint leaves and combines the flavors.
Fill the glass with ice cubes.
Pour the sparkling water over the ice and muddled mixture, stirring gently to combine the ingredients. You can adjust the amount of sparkling water to taste.
Garnish the drink with a lime slice and a sprig of mint for a fresh presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Alcohol-Free Mojito!
