The perfect summer cocktail, a cross between a tall glass of fresh brewed iced green tea and a mojito! I think this is going to be my signature drink all summer, it's icy cool, and has the added bonus of antioxidant rich green tea.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 4 large spearmint leaves (plus more for garnish)
  • 4 baby arugula leaves
  • 2 tsp sugar (I used raw, use your favorite sweetener)
  • 1/2 cup brewed green tea (chilled)
  • 1 oz white rum

Instructions

  • Muddle the lime juice, mint, arugula, and sugar together in a tall Collins glass until the leaves bruise lightly and the flavors release.
  • Add ice until glass is about 3/4 full and then pour in rum and green tea.
  • Stir well and garnish with mint and lime.
