This mocktail is vegan because it swaps out the traditional egg white for aquafaba, but you can also use an egg white.

🌟Why you’ll love this recipe

  • Make the borage simple syrup once, and enjoy this mocktail with extreme ease all summer long. It’s a no-fuss easy mock-tail to make with only a few ingredients. You can use a jar instead of a shaker, and a strainer instead of a cocktail strainer.
  • The slightly sweet, herbal taste from the borage simple syrup pairs beautifully with the lemon, creating a gentle-tasting lemonade as the base for this mocktail. You can also make borage tea.
  • This borage fizz works perfectly without any alcohol, but you can still easily add in 2-ounces of your favorite gin to make it alcoholic.

🧾Ingredients in this recipe

Simple syrup, lemon, and sparkling water on a countertop.
  • Aquafaba or egg whites – You can use the liquid from a can of chickpeas, aquafaba, which is a vegan substitute for egg whites in recipes like this. If using egg whites, make sure to wash the egg in advance.
  • Borage simple syrup – This is a syrup made with 1 part water and 1 part sugar, infused with borage. You can use a regular simple syrup for this recipe or make your own borage simple syrup.
  • Lemon juice – Use fresh lemons for this recipe.
  • Sparkling water – You can use plain sparkling water or club soda for this.
  • (Optional) gin – If you do want to make this cocktail alcoholic, you can add two ounces of your favorite gin.

How many egg whites?

The mocktail in the photos is 2 servings in one glass. If making a double, only 2 tablespoons of aquafaba is necessary (similarly, just one egg white).
