Kombucha Mojitos.
So what really is kombucha? It's a fermented, lightly sweetened black or green tea that packs a healthy punch! It's supposed to help make our tummies feel all good + it's loaded with probiotic's, but really I just love the way it tastes!

- 1/2 cup sugar

Instructions
- To the bottom of your glass, add 4 lime wedges, the mint and the simple syrup (see below) (or sugar), using a muddler or even the end of a rolling pin or other kitchen tool. Muddle the lime, mint + syrup together (squish everything together) to release the juices.

Hibiscus Simple Syrup
- In a small sauce pan, combine the sugar and water. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat and simmer until the sugar dissolves, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the hibiscus. Allow the mixture to steep for 5-10 minutes and then strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer. Cool and use as desired. Syrup with keep for at least 1 week in the fridge.
