Benefits: Oranges and lemons are packed with vitamin C to brighten and rejuvenate the skin, while rosemary provides antioxidants to protect against free radicals and promote a glowing complexion.

Skin Concern: Dull or uneven skin tone

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Serves: 2

Ingredients:

  • Juice of 1 orange
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 cup sparkling water
  • 1 tsp honey (optional)
  • 2 small sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • Ice cubes

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Base: In a glass or shaker, mix orange juice, lemon juice, and honey (if using) until well combined.
  2. Assemble the Drink: Fill two glasses with ice cubes and divide the citrus mixture evenly between them.
  3. Add Sparkling Water: Top each glass with sparkling water, stirring gently to combine.
  4. Garnish: Add a sprig of fresh rosemary to each glass for garnish and a flavor infusion.
  5. Serve: Enjoy immediately for a refreshing, hydrating mocktail.

Shopping Tips:

  • Oranges: Choose firm, brightly colored oranges that feel heavy for their size to ensure maximum juiciness.
  • Lemons: Select lemons with smooth skin and a bright yellow color for optimal freshness.
  • Rosemary: Look for fresh, fragrant rosemary with vibrant green leaves. Avoid sprigs that are dry or browning.

Cooking Tips:

  • Bruise the Rosemary: Gently crush the rosemary sprigs with your fingers or the back of a spoon before adding them to release their natural oils and aroma.
  • Enhance Presentation: Add a slice of orange or lemon to the rim of the glass for extra flair.
  • Chilled Ingredients: Use cold sparkling water and pre-chilled citrus juices for the most refreshing experience.

This mocktail is a light, revitalizing beverage that not only delights your taste buds but also supports glowing skin. Perfect for brunch, gatherings, or a mid-day pick-me-up!
