What’s In A Strawberry Mojito?

• White rum – This is traditionally used in mojitos!
• Lime juice – Tart and citrusy to balance the sweetness. 
• Fresh mint leaves – These are muddled to release the flavor.
• Club soda – A simple mixer to add liquid and sparkle!
• Strawberry Simple Syrup – This is used instead of regular sugar! It blends easily with the other ingredients and adds juicy goodness. Don’t forget to make it in advance and store it in the refrigerator so it’s ready when you need it!

How To Make A Strawberry Mojito:

Making mojitos at home is super easy but it does require a few simple steps!

1. Begin by adding fresh mint leaves to a tall glass.

2. Pour in freshly squeezed lime juice.

3. Then add in the homemade Strawberry Simple Syrup.

4. Then use a muddler to muddle the mint with the juice and syrup. You could also add additional fruit and muddle strawberries and lime wedges up too for a more intense fruit flavor.

5. Fill the glass with ice (make sure it’s crushed) and add rum.

6. Use a bar spoon to mix everything up.

7. Top the mojito off with club soda.

Equipment

• Muddler

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• ▢ 8 fresh mint leaves
• ▢ 1 ounce lime juice
• ▢ 1 ounce Strawberry Simple Syrup
• ▢ crushed ice
• ▢ 1½ ounces white rum
• ▢ club soda
• ▢ mint for garnish

Notes

1. For a Strawberry Mojito Mocktail, simply leave out the rum and add more club soda!
2. Muddling is a technique often used in making craft cocktails. Basically, it means mashing up ingredients (like herbs, berries, or fruit) to release the flavor. 
   You can either use a bartending muddling tool, a mortar and pestle, or a wooden spoon handle!
3. Feel free to add lime wedges and fresh strawberries to the drink and muddle them up for a more intense flavor!
