Preparation

  1. 1

    First, prepare your fresh ingredients. Juice the lemon and the grapefruit into separate glasses or a small bowl. You'll want about 30-45 ml of lemon juice and 100-150 ml of grapefruit juice, depending on the size of your fruit.

  2. 2

    Take your fresh thyme sprigs. Gently crush them a little bit with your fingers or the back of a spoon. This helps release their aromatic oils and distinct flavor.

Assembly

  1. 3

    In a serving glass, combine the fresh lemon juice and grapefruit juice. Add the lightly crushed thyme sprigs to the glass.

  2. 4

    Fill the glass generously with ice. The more ice, the colder and more refreshing your mocktail will be!

  3. 5

    Top off the mixture with sparkling water. Stir gently to combine all the flavors without losing too much fizz.

Serving

  1. 6

    For a lovely presentation, decorate your mocktail with a fresh lemon slice or a few extra thyme leaves.

  2. 7

    Serve immediately and enjoy your wonderfully refreshing drink!
