2-3 T honey
1 Spring Fresh Mint
Ice
Sparkling Water

Instructions

In a cocktail mixer, squeeze the 3 lime wedges but then also add them to the cup so that you can muddle in the fragrance of the oils in the lime wedge. Add fresh mint into the cocktail mixer.
Muddle the lime and mint for 1 min.
Add the honey and tequila (4 oz. tequila if making 2 cocktails).
Add a scoop of ice and just a splash of sparkling water to help the shaking process.
Put the lid on the cocktail mixer and shake it for 30 seconds. Pop the lid off and pour the mixture into a drinking glass.
