A summer cocktail

One of Deano and I’s favorite things to do during the summer is enjoy a cocktail on the porch after the boys go to bed. It’s the perfect way to wind down the day and spend some quality time together.

On those particular hot summer nights, I crave a bright, refreshing cocktail. This blueberry mint mojito is one of my go-tos. It features two of my fav summer produce: mint and blueberries. It’s also bright, perfectly sweet and balanced, and a little bubbly too, making for a fun, festive porch drink. Best yet, it takes only a couple of minutes to whip up!

Sipping on this blueberry mint mojito as we watch the sunset….it’s my favorite summer activity.

Ingredients in this Blueberry Mint Mojito

blueberries. make sure to use fresh, ripe blueberries. You will muddle them so they release their sweet juices and provides this beautiful purple hue to the drink!
mint, gives a mojito that classic crisp, refreshing flavor it’s known for!
white rum, a must for any good mojito (but you can omit to make this a mocktail if desired).
agave or honey, for natural sweetness.
lime juice, the sweet and sour flavor of the lime balances out the sweetness of the other flavors.
club soda, for a little sparkle!

How to make this summertime drink

Pick the right glass. A high ball cocktail glass is the right choice for this cocktail. You can build and make the entire cocktail in this glass. No shaker needed!
Add in the main ingredients. To the highball glass, add in the fresh blueberries, agave, lime juice, rum and mint.
Time to muddle. Use the back of a wooden spoon or muddler, and gently press down on the ingredients until the mint becomes fragrant and blueberries start to release their juices (this is called muddling).
Top with club soda. Fill the glass with ice and top with club soda.
Stir it up. Gently stir so the ingredients are well mixed.
Enjoy! Garnish with a lime wedge and mint, if desired. Then, sip away!
