The Perfect Mojito Recipe

Today I’m going to be sharing with you the perfect mojito recipe.  I’ve been making this mojito recipe for a few years now and it’s the best one I’ve ever had. I’ve also got a lot of compliments on it from friends I’ve made it for so here it is for you to enjoy too!

You don’t necessarily need any special tools for this recipe. If you were to use one thing I would suggest a muddler to help extract the juices from the mint. A little over a year ago we bought a bartender accessory kit as well as a shaker  to help with our recipes, and to make them even cuter we got them in copper!

The Perfect Mojito Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 8 to 10 mint leaves
  • 3 lime wedges
  • 1 to 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • Ice cubes
  • Shot of White Rum
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup of sparkling soda (depending on glass size)

Directions:

The first thing you do is take your mint leaves and a slice of lime and muddle them together in your glass. I used to have a regular mint plant and a mojito mint plant but unfortunately they both died while I was away for 2 weeks. This was supper upsetting as I was making tons of mojito’s for my friends and I! I think I will have to buy another one soon and hopefully this one won’t die on me. Regular mint will be fine but the best to use is mojito mint. It has bigger and sturdier leaves so they don’t break apart. You can just buy some mojito mint from the grocery store. Muddling these will bring out the juices in the mint leaves for that great taste you’re looking for.

Next add 2 more lime wedges and your sugar and muddle all that together in your glass too. I personally like my mojito to be pretty sweet but you can add less sugar if you don’t want that. Then add your ice filled to the rim (I actually had no ice ready for when I made these! Do better than me haha). The next step is optional. You don’t have to put alcohol in this recipe but I put in a shot of white rum using the tool in my bartender kit. Lastly fill your glass to the rim with sparkling water. Now give it a stir to make sure the sugar is mixed in nicely and enjoy!

  1. I LOVE mojitos! It’s great that it is so easy to make and so much cheaper than buying it outside. I haven’t made any at home for a long time but need to get back to the grind! Thanks for sharing the recipe ♥.
