Elderflower Ginger-Beet Spritz
A wonderful drink to serve Mom on Mother’s Day, this nonalcoholic spritz features ingredients that can help to strengthen and heal your digestive and immune systems. We like to use an alcohol-free orange bitters that includes natural ingredients—our favorite brand is All The Bitter. It’s crafted with three varieties of orange peel plus cardamom, coriander and lemon balm for herbal, spicy and zesty flavors. Bottled red beet juice is sold in most grocery stores; to make your own, peel a raw beet and run it through a juicer, or press a steamed beet through a fine-mesh sieve.
Ingredients:
- Ice cubes
- 1 1/2 oz. (45 ml) red beet juice
- 1 oz. (30 ml) ginger beer
- 1/2 oz. (15 ml) fresh lemon juice
- 2 droppers of alcohol-free orange bitters
- 3 orange slices
- 5.07 fl. oz. (150 ml) elderflower tonic water (1 can Fever-Tree elderflower tonic water)
Directions:
Fill a wide, tall wine glass with a handful of ice cubes. Add the beet juice, ginger beer, lemon juice and orange bitters. Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture until combined. Add 2 of the orange slices, then top the glass with the elderberry tonic water.
Cut a small slit in the remaining orange slice and place it on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately. Serves 1.
