They may look real, but these grapefruit mojitos are mocktails. The refreshing blend of citrus and mint is perfect for a warm summer afternoon.

Makes two drinks.

2 tbs. agave syrup or honey
12 fresh mint leaves, roughly torn
1/2 cup pink grapefruit soda or flavored mineral water, plus more as needed
