Blood Orange Mojito


A citrusy, colorful spin on the classic mojito—bursting with the tang of blood orange and the coolness of mint. ๐ŸŒฟ

๐ŸŒธ What You’ll Need:

  • Juice of 1 blood orange

  • Juice of 1/2 lime

  • 8–10 fresh mint leaves

  • 2 tsp sugar (or honey for a healthier option)

  • 2 oz white rum

  • Ice cubes

  • Soda water (to top)

  • Garnish: mint sprig + blood orange slice


๐Ÿน Instructions:

  1. Muddle & Mix

    • In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add mint leaves, sugar (or honey), lime juice, and blood orange juice.

    • Gently muddle to release the mint oils and dissolve the sugar.

  2. Add the Rum

    • Pour in the white rum and give it a quick stir or shake with ice.

  3. Serve It Up

    • Fill a highball glass with ice.

    • Strain or pour the mixture over the ice.

    • Top with soda water to your liking.

  4. Garnish & Enjoy

    • Add a mint sprig and a slice of blood orange on the rim or floating on top.


โœง Pro Tips:

  • Want it extra fancy? Rim the glass with sugar and orange zest.

  • For a mocktail version, skip the rum and use more soda water or blood orange soda!


๐Ÿ’– Perfect for sunny afternoons, brunches, or whenever you need a citrusy pick-me-up!
