Mystic Mint Mojito

Mystic Mint Mojito

A refreshing twist on the classic mojito with a hint of mystery and extra minty coolness.

Ingredients:

• 8–10 fresh mint leaves

• Lime wheel or wedge

Instructions

1.Muddle the Mint: 

• Place the mint leaves, lime juice, and sugar (or simple syrup) into a sturdy glass or shaker.
• Gently muddle with a muddler or the back of a spoon to release the mint’s oils without tearing the leaves.

2. Add Rum and Ice:

• Add white rum (or skip for a mocktail) and fill the glass halfway with ice cubes.

3. Top with Soda

• Pour in club soda or sparkling water to fill the glass. Stir gently to combine.

4. Garnish

• Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wheel for a finishing touch.

5.Serve:

• Serve immediately with a straw or stir stick. Enjoy the minty magic!

Tip:

For an extra cooling effect, muddle a slice of cucumber with the mint leaves.
