If you’re a fan of the classic Mojito, you’re going to fall in love with this Blueberry Mojito—a refreshing twist that adds just the right hint of berry sweetness to every sip.
It’s still got that signature crispness you expect from a Mojito, but the blueberries give it a little something extra. Think of it as a fresh garden mojito with a flirtier, more colorful personality.
Consider this your new go-to drink for the summer.
Let’s start with the build.
In a highball glass, muddle lime wedges, fresh mint, and granulated sugar—just like you would in a traditional mojito. But here’s where the twist comes in: drop in a generous handful of fresh blueberries before you muddle.
The berries release their juice and color into the mix, adding subtle sweetness and a deep purple hue that makes this cocktail as pretty as it is delicious.
Next up is the spirit—white rum. It’s a Mojito essential.
White rum brings smoothness, a slight molasses note, and that bright, clean finish that plays perfectly with citrus and mint.
Plus, it’s a nod to the cocktail’s Cuban roots, where white rum is a cultural staple.
Add a splash of lime juice, then fill the glass with ice and top it all off with soda water. Give it a gentle stir to marry the flavors without bruising the mint.
Now for the finishing touch: Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a few extra blueberries to highlight the berry-forward flair.
Step 1: Muddle sugar with blueberries and 2-3 sprigs of mint in glass.
Step 2: Pour rum and lime juice directly into the glass with muddled ingredients.
Step 3: Add ice and top the cocktail off with soda water. Stir well to combine.
Step 4: Garnish with fresh mint and blueberries.
This cocktail is a heavenly blend of flavors.
Whether you’re poolside, on the patio, or hosting a weekend brunch, the Blueberry Mojito is an easy, crowd-pleasing option that looks just as good as it tastes. Sweet, tart, and incredibly refreshing—it’s the kind of cocktail that turns heads and cools you down.
