Strawberry Mojito Cocktail Recipe
Cuba meets English summer in the recipe for the Strawberry Mojito cocktail, a drink in which juicy fresh berries combine with juicy lime, white rum and a hint of fresh mint to create a deliciously fruity berry combination. This fruity twist on the classic Mojito retains all the elements you love - crushed mint, tangy lime and tangy soda - but with juicy strawberries complemented by natural sweetness and fragrant berries to enhance every sip. It's ideal for warm afternoons, garden parties, weekend brunches or any summer occasion when you need something sunny-flavored that perfectly balances sweet fruit with the freshness of citrusy mint.
