Mango Mojito Recipe

Ingredients:

  • For the Mojito Base:
  • 1 large ripe mango, peeled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, plus extra for garnish
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 1/4 cup simple syrup (adjust to taste, or use honey or agave syrup)
  • 1 cup cold soda water or sparkling water (for a fizzy effect)
  • Ice cubes
  • For the Alcoholic Version (Optional):
  • 1/4 cup white rum (adjust to taste)
  • Garnishes:
  • Lime slices
  • Mango slices
  • Extra mint leaves

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Mango Puree:
  • Place the mango cubes in a blender and add a splash of water.
  • Blend until smooth, creating a mango puree. You should have about 1 cup of puree.
  1. Mix the Mojito Base:
  • In a pitcher, combine the mango puree, fresh mint leaves, lime juice, and simple syrup.
  • Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently muddle the mint leaves to release their flavor. Be careful not to shred the mint too finely.
  • Stir in the cold soda water or sparkling water. If making an alcoholic version, add the white rum and mix well.
  1. Serve:
  • Fill glasses with ice cubes.
  • Pour the mango mojito mixture over the ice.
  • Garnish with lime slices, mango slices, and additional mint leaves.
  1. Enjoy:
  • Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Mango Mojito!

Simple Syrup Recipe:

  • Combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan.
  • Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Allow it to cool, then store in a clean bottle or jar in the refrigerator for up to a month.

Tips:

  • Adjust Sweetness: Taste the mojito mix before serving. You can adjust the sweetness by adding more simple syrup if desired.
  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the mango puree and mix the mojito base a few hours ahead. Add soda water and ice just before serving to keep it fizzy and cool.

This Mango Mojito is perfect for cooling off on a hot summer day or impressing guests at a summer gathering. Enjoy!
