Strawberry Spring Mojito
Sip this zippy take on a classic while you watch the snow melt. I love the gorgeous pink hue the strawberries impart. And the mint pairs perfectly with the berries as well.
Ingredients
2 large strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/2 lime juiced
8 large mint leaves
2 teaspoons granulated or super fine sugar
2 shots ounces of white rum
1 cup ice
Club soda as needed
Directions
Add strawberries, fresh lime juice, mint and sugar to a cocktail shaker and muddle until strawberries are broken down and mint leaves are torn apart.
Add rum and ice and shake vigorously. Pour cocktail with ice into a glass and top off a splash of club soda. Garnish strawberry slices, lime slices and/or mint leaves and enjoy!
