Apricot Mojito (mocktail)

Pit the apricots, cut them in half, and put them into a blender with one tablespoon of water. Blend until smooth – if you want a really creamy consistency, strain it through a fine sieve.

Divide the lime juice, the halved lime, one teaspoon of cane sugar each, and a few mint leaves into two glasses. Muddle everything well with a cocktail muddler or the end of a wooden spoon to release the flavours.

Spoon 3 teaspoons of apricot puree into each glass, add a few ice cubes, top up with soda water, insert a straw, and stir.
