And this time too we make a spicy syrup for a delicious mocktail. Certainly with rum a "sweetness" fits in your glass. I often make tea with a piece of lemongrass in it, which gives your drink a lot of flavor. So this time we "brew" our own syrup. I always have a few bottles of homemade syrup in the fridge, because you can keep them for a long time. This virgin rum lemongrass mocktail can also be served very well as a cocktail. Simply replace the non-alcoholic rum with real rum. The choice of rum certainly determines the taste of your drink.

And this is how you make it:
- Let's make the syrup first. Clean the lemon well and grate some zest from the zest, squeeze out the juice.
- Take a saucepan and add the sugar, water, lemon juice, lemongrass stalk, and cinnamon sticks. Bring to the boil and then let it simmer until it has reduced to a nice syrup. Pour everything through a colander into a glass bottle or jar and let it cool.
- Grab the glasses and put the lemongrass and cinnamon sticks in it, so this is not necessary for decoration if you don't want that. Fill the glass with ice cubes.
- Pour 1 tbsp syrup per glass and 50 ml alcohol-free rum into the glass and top it up with spa red.
- Cheers!
Mix it up! Shake and swirl with mocktails and cocktails, before you know it you'll have a taste like me. To work:
