Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
2 cups plain sparkling water, chilled
1 cup ice cubes

For serving

2 fresh mint sprigs (optional)
2 lime wedges (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the honey and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the honey fully dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, add the 1/4 cup mint leaves, and stir to submerge them.
2
Let the mint steep in the warm syrup for 10 minutes, then pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl or jar, pressing the leaves gently to extract their flavor. Discard the spent mint. Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
