Discover the ultimate classic mojito cocktail recipe! Made with fresh mint, lime, rum, and soda water — it’s the perfect refreshing drink for summer days and cocktail nights.

Refreshing Classic Mojito – A Cool Minty Cocktail Favorite

A mojito is the perfect cocktail when you're craving something refreshing, citrusy, and slightly sweet. This Cuban-born classic features fresh mint leaves, tangy lime juice, a hint of sugar, and white rum — all topped off with bubbly soda water. Whether you're lounging by the pool or entertaining guests, this easy mojito cocktail recipe is a must-have in your drink rotation.

📝 Ingredients (Serves 1):

  • 10 fresh mint leaves
  • ½ lime, cut into 4 wedges
  • 2 teaspoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 60 ml (2 oz) white rum
  • Soda water (to top)
  • Ice cubes
  • Extra mint sprig and lime wedge (for garnish)

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Muddle the flavor:
In a sturdy glass, muddle the mint leaves with the sugar and 2 lime wedges to release the juices and essential oils.

2. Add more lime:
Squeeze the remaining lime wedges into the glass, then drop them in.

3. Pour in the rum:
Add the white rum and stir to mix the flavors.

4. Fill with ice:
Add ice cubes to the top of the glass.

5. Top with soda:
Pour soda water until the glass is full. Give it a gentle stir.

6. Garnish and serve:
Garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime wedge. Serve immediately with a straw.

🍹 Variations to Try:

  • Strawberry Mojito: Add muddled strawberries for a fruity twist
  • Coconut Mojito: Use coconut rum instead of white rum
  • Frozen Mojito: Blend the ingredients with ice for a slushy version
  • Mocktail Mojito: Skip the rum for a refreshing non-alcoholic drink

✅ Pro Tips:

  • Use fresh mint — not dried — for the best flavor
  • Gently muddle mint to release oils without tearing it
  • Crushed ice chills the drink faster and looks great too
  • Adjust sugar and lime to taste for a perfect balance

💚 Why You’ll Love This Mojito:

  • Super refreshing and easy to make
  • Great for summer BBQs, parties, and picnics
  • Can be customized into fun fruity versions
  • Always a crowd favorite.
