Wild Blueberry Mojitos
These are great for summer on the patio, a fancy little get-together (nothing says fancy like muddled mint, right?), or even just a treat for you and your partner!
Ingredients
- ΒΌ cup wild blueberries fresh or frozen
- 10 mint leaves + sprigs for garnish
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup
- 2 ounces white rum
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 10 cubes ice
- 4 slices lime for garnish
- Lemon-lime soda to top off the drink
Instructions
- Muddle mint leaves, lime juice, simple syrup, rum, and blueberries in a glass (or cocktail shaker) to release the oil and flavour from the mint into the lime juice and get some of the juices from the blueberries and skin.
- Divide between glasses and pour over ice. Add blueberries, mint, and lime to glasses, and top off with a splash of lemon-lime soda in each glass.
- Recipe makes two tall drinks, but can be divided among 4 short glasses (although I recommend upping the booze for extra fun).
