I made a delicious recipe using SPLENDA® Sweeteners as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars.
Celebrate summer with a fresh cherry and mint drink. These Cherry Mint Mocktails are sweet, tangy, bubbly and family friendly!
Fresh, sweet cherries are almost always a highlight of my summer. My kids jump for joy likes it’s Christmas when I bring home a bag of fresh cherries from the grocery store.
Perfectly ripe cherries plus fresh mint from my garden and a splash of lime juice really turn a normal cherry drink into this festive summertime drink. Plus since I used SPLENDA® Sugar Blend, it’s got less added sugar so it’s figure friendly too!
Cherry Mint Mocktail
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh cherries, stemmed and pitted
- 1/4 cup fresh mint
- 2 tbls SPLENDA® Sugar Blend
