Ingredients

Muddle

  • 1/2 cup strawberries diced into half inch dices
  • 1 cup mint leaves fresh
  • 4 lime slices
  • 2 teaspoons honey more or less to your taste
  • 1 lime juiced

To Make Mojito

  • 6 cups club soda
  • 1/4 cup white rum skip is making mocktail
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Garnish

  • 1 fresh mint, strawberry slices and more lime slices

Instructions

  1. If you're making individual glasses or a large pitcher, you'll be making the mojito recipe the exact same way.
  2. Start by adding the strawberries at the bottom of the cups or pitcher. To that you'll add the sweetener that you're using, the mint, a squirt of lime juice and lime slices.

  3. Now you'll muddle the fruits, mint and lime using a wooden spoon. You want to make sure the strawberries release their juices, the lime as well and the mint has broken down. The flavors are just impeccably refreshing, you won't believe it!
    Lots of fresh mint, lime slices and honey is added to the strawberries at the bottom of the cup
  4. Add in some ice for a refreshing cold drink, and now go in with your club soda.

  5. If you're using rum, this is where you'll be adding it (with or before the club soda). However we keep our drinks virgin, so club soda all the way to fill up the cup or pitcher.
    Club soda is poured over the muddled fruit and mint showing some fizz in the cup and continuing to pour until it fills up the cup.
  6. Give the mojito recipe a good mix and your drink is ready for garnish.
  7. Sliced strawberries, more fresh mint and more lime slices are the perfect garnish. Add more or less ice to your taste, and you're all SET to ENJOY this!!

Recipe Notes

Mojito Recipe Tips

  1. Use seasonal and fresh fruit if you're making a fruity Mojito recipe. 
  2. Lime is the classical tangy taste of a mojito, however I've had orange and other citrus variations.
  3. When it comes to the sweetener, classically a simple syrup is the one to use. Even better, you can use flavored simple syrup like mint infused or a spicy jalapeno infused :) I prefer the rich taste of honey, so we used that today.
  4. Make sure you muddle the ingredients well before adding the club soda. You cant to see the juices released from the strawberries and lime, and watch as the mint leaves break down. This is where the mojito taste comes from.
  5. As mentioned above, you can make this into a mocktail by simply skipping the rum and using club soda to fill up the glass. 

How to Make a Mojito Pitcher?

You're going to follow the exact steps above but multiply the ingredients by 3, 4, 5, 6, or even 10 depending on the size of your pitcher. Keep the ice in the serving glasses and not in the pitcher. Serve over ice in individual cups and enjoy :)

Make Ahead

This is such a convenient recipe to prepare in advance especially if you're having company. Here's how to make this drink even easier: Prepare the muddle step the day before and keep those muddled ingredients in an airtight container. The day of, you'll be finishing the mojito by adding in the club soda and ice. Then you'll just garnish and it's good to go!
