Equipment

  • 1 Cocktail Shaker
  • 1 Cocktail Muddler
  • 1 Cocktail Glass

Ingredients

  • 6 mint leaves plus more for garnish
  • 2-3 strawberries diced + 1 additional strawberry for garnish
  • 2 ounces Strawberry Simple Syrup
  • 2 ounces Citrus Rum
  • 4 ounces Club Soda

Instructions

  • Place mint leaves and diced strawberries in bottom of cocktail shaker. Muddle until most of the strawberries are smashed.
  • Pour in the strawberry simple syrup into the glass, citrus rum, and a few ice cubes to chill the drink, then top with club soda.
  • Garnish with a sprig of mint and a fresh strawberry. Enjoy.

Notes

  • Freshness is Key - Always use fresh strawberries and mint leaves for the best flavor. Bruised or wilted herbs won't give you the aromatic punch you desire.
  • Adjust the Sweetness - Tailor the sweetness to your taste. If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add a touch more simple syrup. For a tangier twist, increase the lime juice.
  • Crush Gently - When muddling the strawberries and mint, be gentle. Over-muddling can release bitter compounds from the mint leaves.
  • The Ice Matters - Use crushed ice for a quicker chill and more surface area for flavor infusion. It also makes your drink look stunning.
  • Garnish with Flair - A sprig of fresh mint and a strawberry slice make for a visually appealing garnish. Serve your Strawberry Mojito in a tall glass with a colorful straw for that extra "wow" factor.
