IMO (B)
A) - mixed it in a little truth with her story outright non-sensical
B) - looks great - more on this while looking at (D)
C) - would mix - again, this doesn't make sense
D) - now, between (B) and (D), D uses had mixed, but the past events - she mixed it in a little truth with her story, although most of what she said was false, both happened simultaneously, so the usage of past perfect is incorrect here, and hence, (D) is eliminated
E) - look at had been mixing and then look at most of what she said was false. Super-awkward construction. And hence, (E) too is eliminated.
(B) is the correct answer choice, for this question.

Could you give an example of when the “had mixed” option would be accurate?
