Ingredients
Method
- Wash limes, roll on countertop to maximize juice, then cut in half.
- Squeeze limes into a pitcher, aiming for 1/2 to 3/4 cup. Strain if desired.
- Add 2 scoops of collagen peptides to the pitcher with lime juice. Pour in 1/2 cup filtered water. Stir vigorously until collagen fully dissolves.
- Stir in your chosen sweetener (2-4 tablespoons). Taste and adjust to preference.
- Add remaining 1.5 cups filtered water to the pitcher and stir well.
- Optional: Cover and chill the base in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Fill serving glasses with ice. Pour 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the chilled base into each glass.
- Top each glass with an equal amount of chilled sparkling water. Gently stir once.
- Garnish the Lime Collagen Spritz with a mint sprig and lime slice. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use chilled filtered and sparkling water to preserve fizz. Dissolve collagen properly in room temperature or warm liquids. Taste the base before adding sparkling water for correct sweetness. Store the base in an airtight pitcher for up to 3-4 days without sparkling water.
