Mexican Mojito
The typical mojito is made with white rum, but a smooth white tequila works perfectly with the wisp of mint and sweetness.
Ingredients
- 3 mint sprigs
- 3 lime wedges
- 3 teaspoons sugar
- 6 ounces ice cubes
- 1 1/2 ounces 100 percent agave blanco tequila
- 2 ounces soda water or sparkling water
- 1 ounce lemon-lime soda
- Lime slice and mint sprig for garnish
Instructions
- In a mixing glass or shaker, muddle the mint sprigs, lime, and sugar.
- Add the ice and tequila. Cover shake vigorously, and pour or strain into a 12-ounce glass.
- Top it off with soda water and then top that off with the lemon-lime soda. Garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime circle. Originally published May 5, 2010.
