Mojito Ingredients

Method

Mojito Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves, releasing their aromatic oils. Be careful not to tear them too much.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine and dissolve the sugar.

  3. 3

    Add Rum

    Add the Bacardi Superior Rum to the glass. Stir gently to mix all ingredients well.

  4. 4

    Add Blackberries (if making Blackberry Mojito)

    If you are making a Blackberry Mojito, add the blackberries to the glass and gently muddle them with the other ingredients to release their juices.

  5. 5

    Add Ice and Seltzer

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to your preference, then top off with seltzer water. Stir gently to combine all the layers.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint or a slice of lime on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!
