How to make it
- Gently muddle the mint with the lime juice in a shaker.

Tip: Press gently when you muddle. Crushing herbs too hard releases bitter flavours.
About the Zero-Proof Southside
Cut Above's published zero-proof Southside uses its gin alternative with fresh mint, lime and a small tonic top-up. The syrup balances the citrus while tonic adds a lightly fizzy finish.
Missing something?
- No Lime Juice? Use Lime (Squeeze fresh: 1 lime gives about 25 ml)
- No Lime Juice? Use Lemon Juice (Softer, different aroma)
- No Simple Syrup? Use Rich Simple Syrup (More concentrated, so use less)
- No Simple Syrup? Use Sugar (1 tsp sugar is about 7.5 ml syrup; stir until dissolved)
