Blood-orange and lime spritzer non-alcoholic cocktail recipe 

by

The lime syrup recipe here makes enough for two batches of this non-alcoholic cocktail.

Prep time: 20 minutes

MAKES 

eight 

For the lime syrup

For the spritzers

METHOD 

  1. To make the syrup, put 350ml water, the sugar and the zest in a saucepan. Bring to the boil slowly, stirring to help the sugar dissolve. Leave to cool and for the zest to infuse.
  2. Once cool, stir in the lime juice and pour through a nylon sieve.
  3. To make a batch of the spritzers, mix the blood-orange juice with 350ml of lime syrup. Slowly add the water – it will really fizz – and serve over ice with the citrus zest as a garnish.
