Description
A refreshing and spicy guava mocktail perfect for warm days, featuring guava syrup and a tangy lime finish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ounces (90 ml) Torani Guava Syrup
- 1 ounce (30 ml) freshly squeezed lime juice
- Ice
- Chilled sparkling mineral water
- 11/2 teaspoon chili powder
- Chile-lime seasoning
- 2 small lime wheels
Instructions
- Mix Guava Juice & Lime: Start by pouring the Torani Guava Syrup into a shaker, then add freshly squeezed lime juice. Shake well to create a refreshing base that cuts through the sweetness of the guava.
- Add Chili Powder & Ice: Next, sprinkle in the chili powder and toss in some ice. Shake the mixture, which will cool down, indicating it is ready.
- Shake Until Chilled: Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until everything is nicely combined and chilled. You should feel the shaker become icy in your hands.
- Prepare Glass With Rim: Moisten the rim of a rocks glass with additional lime juice, then dip it into chile-lime seasoning. Ensure the rim is well coated for maximum flavor.
- Pour & Serve Over Ice: Strain the mocktail into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice. Make sure to pour it straight to let the vibrant color shine through.
- Garnish & Enjoy: Finally, add a slice of lime or a sprig of mint on top for decoration. Serve immediately for the best experience.
Notes
- Storage Tips: Best enjoyed fresh; do not store after mixing.
- Expert Tips: If the mocktail tastes too sweet, consider adding an extra ounce of lime juice or a splash of soda to balance the sweetness.
- If the rim seasoning does not stick, ensure the glass rim is wet enough with lime juice before dipping into the seasoning.
- For a stronger flavor, increase the amount of chili powder by half a1/2 teaspoon or add an extra ounce of guava syrup as desired.
- Reheating Instructions: N/A
- Serving Suggestions: Serve with spicy snacks like chips or salsa. Pair with grilled seafood for a tropical meal.
- Recipe Variations: Add fresh mint for a refreshing twist. Use coconut water instead of sparkling water for a creamier mocktail. Incorporate mango for a sweeter flavor profile.
- Ingredient Notes: Choose the freshest limes for optimal juice quality. If substituting the Torani Guava Syrup, adjust sweetness accordingly by compensating with additional lime juice or sugar.
