This Mango Mojito recipe is a delicious cocktail twist on the classic mojito. It is easy to make, it takes just a handful of ingredients. Don’t skip the muddling- the fresh mint is what really brings this drink to life.

Why we love this recipe-

• The sweetness of the mango, fresh lime juice, and smooth rum make this the perfect tropical cocktail.
• The fruity flavor of the mango nectar is the perfect complement to the fresh limes and light rum we used.
• It is one of our favorite warm weather drinks- the tropical sweet mango nectar will have you feeling like you are on an island.

Mango Mojito Ingredients:

• 2 ounces white rum
• Juice of ½ a lime
• 4 fresh mint leaves
• 1 tsp. Sugar
• 4 ounces mango nectar (or mango juice)
• Sparkling water, soda water, seltzer water, or club soda to top
• Fresh lime wheel or lime wedges, plus fresh mint for garnish
• ½ cup ice cubes

Directions:

Step 1: To your cocktail shaker, add sugar, lime juice, and mint. Muddle with a wooden muddler (you can also use the handle of a wooden spoon or just the back of a spoon) to release the flavor of the mint and dissolve the sugar.

Step 2: Add ice, rum, and mango nectar. Shake to combine and chill.

Step 3: Pour into your favorite cocktail glass.

Step 4: Top with a splash of sparkling water (or other bubbly), and garnish with fresh lime and mint.

Substitutions & Tips:

• To boost the mango flavor in this drink, opt for mango puree instead of the nectar. Mango nectar is just easier to use without having to break out the blender.
• We used Jumex Mango Nectar, but you can sub any mango juice if you can’t find that in your grocery stores.
• You can multiply this recipe by 4-6 to make a pitcher of Mango Mojitos.
• Any regular flavored rum is perfect in this drink, and mango rum would be delicious, too.
