Frozen Mojito
We’re using last week’s blueberry sorbet to make this super summery blueberry mojito float.
The sorbet turns this drink into a frozen mojito.
You can either float the blueberry sorbet scoops, or blend it all together for one slushy beverage.
The base begins like any other mojito. You’ll need fresh mint leaves, some sugar cubes, fresh squeezed lime juice, and light rum.
- Add mint leaves, a couple sugar cubes, lime juice, club soda, and light rum in a cocktail shaker.
- Muddle everything together.
- Strain into a serving glass filled with a few scoops of blueberry sorbet.
Voila! That’s it. You’re done. Sit back and enjoy.
Other fruity mojito options
Mojito pairs well with a variety of fruits.
Make a mango mojito using fresh or frozen mango. Other tropical options include: pineapple, coconut, passion fruit, or guava.
Use strawberries to make an ideal springtime mojito!
