Basil Kombucha Mojitos

It’s no secret that #balance is important. Like meal-prepping with music and glass of wine? I’m in my element. Chocolate truffles that are refined-sugar-free? Yes, please (always). But it’s not every day that we find this kind of balance all in one glass. These basil kombucha mojitos are one of my favorite healthy-ish cocktails. They’re actually (kind of) good for you… so you can enjoy more than one (…or is that not how it works?). Either way, cheers!

Kombucha is a lightly effervescent fermented drink and all fermented foods contain probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria needed for digestion and proper nutrient absorption. Fresh lime juice is high in vitamin C, which is great for the skin, digestion and is anti-inflammatory. Most commercial mojitos use a ton of refined sugar; this basil kombucha mojitos are slightly sweetened from the kombucha and a pinch of stevia or honey if desired.
