PER SERVING (entire recipe): 122 calories, 0g fat, 26mg sodium, 6g carbs, 0.5g fiber, 3.5g sugars, <0.5g protein -- POINTS® value 2*

Minty, black cherryliciousness (and yes, we made a mojito with Kool-Aid!).






Ingredients:
3/4 cup diet lemon-lime soda
1 shot (1 1/2 oz.) light rum
1/8 tsp. Kool-Aid Black Cherry Unsweetened Soft Drink Mix
12 mint leaves
4 dark sweet cherries (fresh and pitted or thawed from frozen)
1/4 lime, cut into slices
1 no-calorie sweetener packet (we like Splenda!)
5 - 8 ice cubes


Directions:
Remove seeds from lime slices. Then muddle (aka pulverize) the mint, lime and cherries in a glass. Add the soda, rum, Kool-Aid, and sweetener. Stir well. Add ice and enjoy!

MAKES 1 SERVING



HG Alternative! Ditch the rum and add water instead. Your alcohol-free fruity mojito will have 25 calories, 0g fat, 6g carbs and 0.5g fiber (POINTS® value 0*).
