Why This Recipe Works

Easy to make – No hours of prepping or complicated techniques needed. All you need is some mint leaves, milk, and coffee!

Flavorful and well-balanced – Pairing the mint flavor with delicious almond milk creates a delicious and refreshing coffee drink.

Low in calories – Similar to my healthy pumpkin spice latte and ube latte recipe, this traditionally decadent recipe was specially developed to be healthier and lower in calories so that you can enjoy this while staying on track with your fitness goals

🍎 Calories and Nutrition Facts – Is It Healthy?

While this creative coffee drink is super delicious, is Philz mint mojito healthy?

Philz Mint Mojito can be a very unhealthy drink given that a serving of the drink made the house way consists of 330 calories, with 27 grams of fat and 22 grams of carbs, making it less than ideal for purposes of staying fit.

Thankfully, you can make or order a healthier version with just a couple tweaks, making a drink at only 10 calories. Here’s what I did to achieve this:

  • Substitute heavy cream for almond milk – Out of all the milk and milk substitutes, almond milk is the lowest in calories. You can look at this chart with nutrition information for various milk types for more details.
  • Portion sweetener – Portioned 1 teaspoon of sugar for sweetener, which only adds 15 calories. If you are ordering at the cafe, you can just ask for light sugar

For a detailed breakdown of each ingredient, their portioning, and how they make up the nutrition profile of this lower-calorie mint mojito recipe, you may refer to the table below:

🔪 Step by Step Instructions

Make the coffee – Start by preparing the coffee that you are using for the drink and set it aside.

Prepare the mint – Muddle the mint leaves in a glass or cocktail shaker. If you don’t have a muddler you can also use a wooden spoon or mortar and pestle.

Add the milk and sugar – Add the almond milk and ice and stir together. If you are using a cocktail shaker, put on the cap and shake vigorously. Taste and add more sugar if you’d prefer it to be sweeter.

Serve the coffee – Pour in the coffee into the base, mix thoroughly, and enjoy your delicious homemade iced mint mojito!

💡Expert Tips

Order a healthy version at Philz Coffee – To order this healthier version of the drink at Philz, ask the barista for an iced mint mojito with low sugar and light almond milk. I would even venture to say you can opt for larger sizes if desired given how low in calories almond milk and a small amount of sugar are.

Muddle the mint with the sugar – Use a muddler to muddle the mint with the sugar so the mint flavor is evenly distributed throughout the coffee.
