South Beach Diet Mojito - 7g Carbs, 0g Fiber
From: South Beach Diet (Phase 1)
A Festive Mexican-Inspired Drink
What would Cinco de Mayo be without a fruity and refreshing
south-of-the-border style drink? This festive "mocktail" is
a healthier alternative to a traditional mojito, which is
typically loaded with sugar. It's perfect for celebrating
Cinco de Mayo because it tastes great and it won't derail
your diet.
We made this refreshing cocktail Phase 1-friendly by omitting
the alcohol and using a sugar substitute in lieu of sugar or
simple syrup. It's just as delicious as the original, but you
can enjoy this cooling mocktail any time of the day!
