Points®
Total time: 6 hr 12 min • Prep: 10 min • Cook: 2 min • Serves: 2 • Difficulty: Easy
Traditional mojitos often contain a lot of added sugars and can reach up to 11 Points per serving! This poptail recipe will save you a third of those Points, even with a bonus popsicle to enjoy alongside. Allow the popsicle to slowly melt as you drink, or bite into it as you go for the perfect mango-flavoured pairing - you decide!
Ingredients
Mango
½ large, chopped
Lime
½ medium, juiced
Monk fruit sweetener with erythritol
2 tsp(s)
Water
2 tsp(s)
Vodka
2 fl oz
Fresh mint leaves
2 tbsp(s), torn
Lime
½ medium, juiced
Soda water
1 cup(s)
Lime

Instructions
1
To make popsicles, process mango and lime juice in a food processor until pureed. Divide puree between 2 x ¼ cup (60ml) capacity popsicle moulds. Place lid on top and freeze for 6 hours, or overnight, until frozen solid.
2
Heat sweetener and 2 teaspoons water in a small saucepan over medium heat until it comes to the boil. Turn off heat and stir through 1 cup of ice to chill syrup, then strain into a small bowl.
3
Divide vodka, mint leaves, lime juice and syrup between 2 cocktail glasses. Using a muddler, mix firmly to bruise mint. Top evenly with soda water and stir to combine. Carefully release popsicles from moulds and place into glasses. Top with dried lime (if using) and serve.
