THE REAL MOJITO
This is an authentic recipe for mojito. I sized the recipe for one serving, but you can adjust it accordingly and make a pitcher full. It's a very refreshing drink for hot summer days. Be careful when drinking it, however. If you make a pitcher you might be tempted to drink the whole thing yourself, and you just might find yourself talking Spanish in no time! Tonic water can be substituted instead of the soda water but the taste is different and somewhat bitter.

Steps:
- Place mint leaves and 1 lime wedge into a sturdy glass. Use a muddler to crush the mint and lime to release the mint oils and lime juice. Add 2 more lime wedges and the sugar, and muddle again to release the lime juice. Do not strain the mixture. Fill the glass almost to the top with ice. Pour the rum over the ice, and fill the glass with carbonated water. Stir, taste, and add more sugar if desired. Garnish with the remaining lime wedge.

EASY MOJITOS
It's hard to find mojitos at any of the restaurants in the small town I'm stationed in, and when I tried to make my own using club soda, they never seemed to turn out right. Using lemon-lime soda also cuts down on the amount of sugar usually used.

TURBO MOJITO
I named this "Turbo Mojito" because it uses turbinado sugar and it's super-fast to make. A lot of people shy away from making mojitos, thinking they're too complicated or time-consuming. I wanted to come up with a version that's more welcoming to beginners. It turns out that this version is even better than the standard version too. I hope you'll give it a try.

Steps:
- Tools: 10oz measured bar glass (if you don't have one already, BUY ONE. They're great for many uses in the kitchen!). You'll also need a bar muddler (or a wooden spoon handle).
- Measure 2oz of rum into the bar measure, toss in the mint leaves, and press the leaves with the muddler for at least 30 seconds. The point is to get as much flavor out of the leaves as you can without tearing them to bits.
- Measure in your simple syrup. I like about 1.5oz of syrup in my mojitos, but you'll find what level of sweetness you like. The syrup is heavy and will sink immediately to the bottom of the mix.
- Add in about 4oz of sparkling lime water and stir- gently- to loosen the syrup at the bottom of the glass.
- Pour- leaves and all- into a tall glass that's already filled with ice. Top off with sparkling lime water, stir gently, and serve.
- Simple syrup: Boil 2 parts sugar and 1 part water together until sugar is well-dissolved. Let cool and pour into a sealable container. Keeps well in the fridge for months.
- Tip: Use turbinado (raw) sugar to make your bar syrup; it's much closer to the cane syrup that's used traditionally in Cuba to make Mojitos. This is what makes this recipe shine above Mojito recipes made with syrup made with white sugar. Turbinado syrup gives a much richer flavor to drinks, and a beautiful golden color too.
- I know some people will disapprove of my using sparkling lime water instead of the traditional sparkling water and fresh-squeezed lime juice. If you buy a sparkling water that has no artificial ingredients (just water and lime) it tastes just as good and it makes it so much faster and easier to prepare this drink. Don't knock it 'till you try it!

MOJITO
Traditional mojitos are made with rum, which is both pleasant and mildly sweet. If you want a new spin on the classic mojito recipe, try using tequila for tart, yet refreshing flavor. -James Schend, Deputy Editor

- Virgin Mojito Recipe. I had to start with a non-alcoholic recipe because I think everyone should be able to enjoy this tasty beverage. And to be honest, it’s just as yummy without the rum.
- Tequila Mojito Cocktail. Being an avid margarita lover, this tequila mojito has been on my mind for weeks. Just remember that the quality of tequila makes a huge difference!
- Mojito Recipe. The key aspect of a mojito is the way it’s made. Mojitos get a lot of their flavor from the fresh mint that’s muddled into the glass. Want to save this recipe?
- Coconut Mojitos. Lime and coconut is a wonderful flavor combination. It’s light, bright, and delightfully tropical. You’ll add coconut rum to this recipe, which is an easy swap for regular white rum.
- Vodka Mojito. White rum is pretty mild in flavor, if slightly sweet. And in this type of cocktail, it’s more or less used for the alcohol content. So, vodka will make a super substitution for the rum-haters out there.
- Mojitos With Gin. Unlike the recipe above, this twist on the classic mojito has a very distinct flavor. Gin is, after all, relatively strong, with lovely botanical notes.
- Strawberry Mojito. As mentioned, the mojito is light, bright, and refreshing. And with its lime and mint base, you can add almost any additional flavor you like.
- Blackberry Mojito. Blackberries are such an underrated fruit, which is a shame. I mean, just look at that deep and intense color! Since there are so many seeds in this berry, I recommend you muddle the berries with the leaves and then add the rum.
- Raspberry Mojito. Where strawberries are sweet and fruity, raspberries are pleasantly sweet and sour. They’re also just as bright, making this pink mojito picture-perfect.
- Fresh Blueberry Mojitos. Blueberries are another juicy and sweet berry, though they can be sour if they’re not ripe. They don’t have as much color as blackberries, but they’re more readily available in most cases.
