How to Make a Strawberry Mojito

1. Muddle the Fruit

In a sturdy glass, add strawberries, mint leaves, lime wedges, and sugar.

Use a muddler (or spoon) to gently crush everything. This releases the juices and mint oils.


2. Add Rum (Optional)

Pour in the white rum if making the alcoholic version.


3. Add Ice & Soda

Fill the glass with ice cubes.
Top with club soda or sparkling water.


4. Stir & Garnish

Stir gently. Garnish with fresh mint and a strawberry slice.

Serve immediately.


Non-Alcoholic Strawberry Mojito (Mocktail)

Simply skip the rum and replace with extra sparkling water or lemon-lime soda.

Perfect for kids, family gatherings, or anyone avoiding alcohol.


Pro Tips

  • Use ripe, sweet strawberries for best flavor.
  • Gently muddle mint — don’t over-crush or it becomes bitter.
  • Chill glasses beforehand for extra refreshment.
  • Add a splash of strawberry syrup for stronger flavor.

Variations

Frozen Strawberry Mojito:
Blend strawberries, mint, lime juice, ice, and soda for a slushy version.

Spicy Strawberry Mojito:
