Strawberry Raspberry Mojito Recipes

Steps:

• Pour 1/4 to 1/2 inch of sugar onto a small, shallow plate. Run one of the lime quarters around the rim of each cocktail glass, then dip the glasses into the sugar to rim; set aside.
• Squeeze all of the lime quarters into a sturdy glass pitcher. Toss the juiced limes into the pitcher along with the mint, strawberries, and 1 cup of sugar. Crush the fruits together with a muddler to release the juices from the strawberries and the oil from the mint leaves. Stir in the rum and club soda until the sugar has dissolved. Pour into the sugared glasses over ice cubes to serve.

Steps:

• For the strawberry-basil puree: To make the simple syrup, heat the sugar and 2 cups water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring as needed, until the sugar has completely dissolved. Set aside and allow to cool completely.
• Add half of the strawberries, lime juice and basil to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until you reach a consistency that makes you happy. I do 10 to 15 pulses, which leaves a good bit of texture. Transfer to a pitcher or container. Repeat with the other half and add to the same container. Pour in the room temperature simple syrup, mix and chill for at least 30 minutes.
• For the strawberry-basil mojitos: Pour 1/2 cup of the strawberry basil puree into each glass. Top with 2 ounces of your favorite light rum, add ice and stir gently to combine. Top off each glass with a splash of soda. Garnish each drink with a stalk of basil and a lime wedge.

Steps:

• In lowball glass, muddle together raspberries, mint, lime juice and sugar. Add ice and rum. Fill glass with club soda. Garnish with lime peel twist.

Steps:

• Muddle the strawberries, limes and sugar in a large jug. Bruise the mint leaves and add to the jug with a pinch of black pepper. Add lots of ice and stir in the rum and sparkling water.

Steps:

• Throw the lime wedges, raspberries, mint, and sugar into a glass and then, using a muddler or wooden spoon, press down on the ingredients to mush them all together and get all of the juice out of the lime wedges.
• Add ice and pour in rum (you can just eyeball the amount, if you don't have something handy to measure) and then top the glass off with club soda.
• If you want it a little more or less sweet, you can always add slightly more or slightly less sugar. It's also delicious with less rum, or no rum at all.
• Stir well and top with fresh mint.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Muddle mint leaves, raspberries, simple syrup, and lime juice together in a shaker. Fill the shaker with ice and add vodka and rum; cover and shake until chilled. Pour entire contents of shaker into a Collins glass and top with club soda.

Steps:

• In a cocktail shaker, muddle or crush the lime and mint leaves. Add in the raspberry simple syrup and white rum. Add ice, cover, shake, and then serve in a rocks glass. Garnish with a raspberry.
• To make the simple syrup: In a saucepan combine the sugar and water. Cook the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the saucepan from the heat and add in the raspberries. Allow the mixture to steep for at least one day. The simple syrup will keep up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator. Add the syrup to the drink when called for above.

Steps:

• Place 2-3 strawberries, 3 mint sprigs, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar in a shaker.
• Squeeze 3 lime wedges over glass and then drop in wedges.
• Mash together with a spoon.
• Add ice and rum.
• Cover and shake.
• Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a strawberry.

Steps:

• Divide the raspberries, lime and sugar between two tall glasses and muddle by gently crushing with a muddler or the end of a bar spoon. The fruits should start to release their juices, which will mix with the sugar.
• Put half the mint leaves in the palm of one of your hands, then clap the other hand on top of the leaves - this bruises them just enough to release their flavour. Drop the bruised mint leaves into one of the glasses, then repeat with the remaining mint, dropping it into the second glass.
• Add a handful of ice to each glass, followed by the rum. Stir, then top up with sparkling water. Stir briefly until just combined, then serve.

Steps:

• Split 2 vanilla beans and scrape insides, add scraping and pods to bottle of rum. Shake well and let sit for a week before using. The longer it sits the more intense the flavor will get. When the rum turns dark similar to a spiced rum it is ready for use.
• Make vanilla syrup. bring 1 cup of water and sugar to a boil until sugar is dissolved into a syrup. add insided and pods of 2 vanilla beans and cover after cooled transfer to a capped squirt bottle of plastic container.
• In a blender, or with an immersion hand mixer purree berries.
• In an old fashioned glass add the mint and limes. Muddle mint and lime until all juice is released from limes and mint has released it oils. (while muddling try not to shred the mint into small pieces, pressing down on mint and not scraping will do this).
• Add strawberry purree and vanilla syrup to lime and mint.
• Fill the glass completely with large ice cubes and add rum.
• Stir all ingredients until mixed completely and top with splash of club soda. If you wish to shake the drink I suggest straining and serving it up and strained to avoid tiny bits of mint.
