Mocktail Assembly
For assembling the melon mojito with lemon sorbet, I recommend using stemmed glasses.
1- Pour the melon and mint smoothie until it reaches two-thirds of the height of the glass.
2- Add a scoop of lemon sorbet to each glass.
3- Sprinkle each non-alcoholic cocktail with grated lime zest using a microplane grater and the half lime you set aside.
4- Serve this mocktail immediately, with a dessert spoon. This way, everyone can choose to eat the ice cream with the melon smoothie or wait for it to melt and mix with the fruity cocktail…
