Bacardi Cuban Mojito
A Cuban Mojito is the ultimate minty refresher. It uses 5 easy ingredients and takes a few minutes. Once you take a sip you'll be in love!
Ingredients
- 6 Mint leaves, additional for garnish
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice, about 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon Superfine sugar
- 2 ounces Bacardi white rum
- Ice
- Seltzer, to top
Instructions
- First, take the lime wedges and squeeze the juice into your shaker cup. Add the sugar and stir so it dissolves.
- Next, add the mint to the cup, pressing down with a spoon to release spearmint oils.
- Then, add Bacardi and shake the cup well to combine and chill the ingredients. Pour the drink into a highball glass and fill the top of the glass with seltzer.
- Finally, garnish with lime wedges and mint leaves and serve.
Christina's Notes
- This Recipe Can be Doubled: To make this mojito cocktail recipe for 2 people, simply increase the ingredients proportionately and split it into two glasses.
- Muddle Mint: Use a muddler (bartender's tool) to muddle together the mint and lime to release its flavor.
- Frozen: Turn this into a frozen mojito recipe by adding the easy mojito recipe ingredients and more ice to a blender.
- Other Alcohol: Try making this rum cocktail with spiced rum or coconut rum.
- Highball Glass: Use a highball glass to help build your drink so you can add all the garnish you want to this refreshing taste cocktail.
- Sweetness: Try using sugarcane molasses to add more sweetness or a pinch more of sugar.
- Rim: Rim your glass with salt to add a salty taste. A sugar or salt rim makes the perfect addition.
