Blueberry Mojito

blueberrymojito5

My mint plants in the garden are starting to grow pretty big this season. I decided to try my hand at making yummy blueberry mojito’s with my surplus of mint.  The mojito is a traditional Cuban highball and usually consists of five ingredients white rum, sugar, lime juice, mint and sparkling water. I wanted to make this recipe a little bit fruitier so I added blueberries and swapped the sparkling water with sparkling raspberry wine. This drink is nice and refreshing on a hot spring afternoon and perfect for this lovely warm weather we have been having this week.

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz light rum
  • 1 tbsp simple syrup
  • 1 cup cup sparkling raspberry wine
  • fresh blueberries
  • fresh mint
  • lime juice

Start by taking fresh mint leaves, a few blueberries and the simple syrup and mush them into the bottom of the glass with a muddler to release the flavor. Next add ice and pour the rum over the ice. Add the sparkling raspberry wine and a squirt of fresh lime juice. Garnish with fresh mint and blueberries.

This recipe makes one, but you should double it, grab a friend and find a patio to kick back on!
