Blueberry mojitos are super simple to make and only require a few simple, fresh ingredients. Thawed frozen berries work really well as a substitute if you cannot find fresh, sweet blueberries.

Ingredients

  • 2 ounceswhite rum
  • 8blueberries, plus more for serving
  • 1 ouncefresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoonssugar (2 cubes)
  • 8fresh mint leaves, plus more for serving
  • 1 ounceclub soda
  • lime slices for serving

Directions

  1. 1

    Add the blueberries, lime juice, sugar, and mint leaves to a cocktail shaker.

  2. 2

    Use the end of a wooden spoon or cocktail muddler to bash (or muddle) the mint into the lime juice and sugar. This releases the mint’s oils, breaks up the blueberries, and helps the sugar dissolve into the lime juice.

  3. 3

    Add the rum, stir well, and then pour into a glass filled with ice, leaving about an inch of room.

  4. 4

    Top with the club soda.

  5. 5

    Serve with extra blueberries, mint leaves, and a lime slice.
