What Is A Mojito?
A Mojito is a cocktail originating from Havana, Cuba that traditionally consists of five ingredients: white rum, sugar, lime juice, soda water, and mint. I have never had classic mojitos (we here at FFR don’t drink), so I can’t make an accurate comparison to the original, but I can say even without the rum the combination of sweetness, citrus, and mint flavors makes this a delicious summertime drink.
What is A Mocktail?
A “mocktail” is another name for a non-alcoholic drink, or in other words, a virgin mojito recipe. Signature Select Soleil sparkling water is a great substitution for drinks such as a mojito because it has good “fizz” and a light flavor. We used the lime flavor for our mojito mocktails but you can use lemon, watermelon or any of their tasty flavors, including their new flavors, including Peach, Pure, Apple, Pineapple, Caffeine Lime, Caffeine Blood Orange and Caffeine Grapefruit. We have other delicious mocktail recipes to try! Our Disneyland Mint Julep copycat tastes as refreshing as the real thing! For a spring brunch, whip up our gorgeous Raspberry Cordial, make a batch of these 5-Minute Magic Slushies for the kids on a hot summer day. Delish!
What’s In A Mojito Mocktail?
The first ingredient you’ll need for a mojito mocktail recipe is Signature SELECT Soleil Sparkling Water – We used the lime flavor but you can use any flavor that you think would be a good fit. You can also use regular club soda if that’s what you have on hand.Mint leaves – Fresh mint leaves gives this mojito a delicious fresh flavor. I was so excited to be able to use the fresh mint from my garden for this recipe!Lime – A mojito isn’t a mojito (even a virgin mojito) without lime. It gives the drink a nice little “zing”. Use the whole thing: fresh lime juice in the drink and a lime wedge for garnish. Lime wedges can also be stirred into the drink for added color.Sugar or sweetener – Typically mojitos have a little added sweetener added to them, whether it be honey, sugar, a simple syrup made from sugar and water, or any natural sugar-free sweetener. You don’t HAVE to have sweetener but it makes it more of a true mojito.Berries (optional) – We took the liberty of adding berries to out mojitos but they aren’t a “standard” mojito ingredient.Ice cubes -(optional)
