Ingredients
3 large sprigs of fresh mint
2 shots of limoncello
2 shots of white rum
Soda water for topping
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 lemon cut into wedges
Ice as needed for the shaker and to fill the glasses
Instructions
1-Making the Limoncello Mojito Cocktail is a breeze and only takes about 10 minutes, so it’s ideal for when you want something special without much fuss. Start by gathering all your ingredients and tools to ensure everything flows smoothly from the get-go. Once you’re set, place the mint leaves from the 3 large sprigs, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the wedges from 1 lemon into a large cocktail shaker.
2-Gently muddle these ingredients to release most of the lemon juice and mint’s fresh aroma. Then, add the 2 shots of limoncello and 2 shots of white rum, fill the shaker with ice, and shake it all up until it’s nice and cold. Divide the mixture between two highball glasses filled with ice, top each with soda water, and garnish with extra fresh mint and lemon wedges for that perfect finish.
3-This step-by-step approach keeps the drink chilled and bubbly, just like in the classic preparation. For adaptations, remember to align ingredients with vegan or gluten-free needs, and if you’re watching calories, swap sugar for a low-cal option. Always use a wooden pestle when muddling to keep things gentle and avoid any glass mishaps.
