Summer is in full bloom and berries are fresh and abundant. It's the perfect time to make a cocktail with fresh summer fruit, like our Blueberry Margarita. Summer is also the time for friends, family and picnics. We love to host parties outside, and we like to have get-togethers where everyone brings her favorite drink. We used to bring the typical beer and wine, but recently we started sampling new cocktails. This Muddled Raspberry Mojito couldn't be simpler to make and it looks amazing sitting on a table. This cocktail is super simple, refreshing and irresistible.

Ingredients:

FRESH RASPBERRIES: ¼ cup
SUGAR: 1 ½ teaspoons
MINT LEAVES: 3 mint leaves
VODKA: 2 ounces
SPARKLING WATER or CLUB SODA: 4 ounces
ICE

What's in a mojito?

A classic mojito is made with rum, lime juice, sugar, mint, and club soda. To make a Raspberry Mojito, we changed it up a bit, substituting vodka for white rum and adding a mix of fresh berries to create a summer cocktail that has become a favorite at our parties.

How to make a mojito:

Muddle together berries, sugar and mint (using a muddler or the back of a spoon) in the bottom of 8 oz glass
Add vodka and crushed ice.
Top with sparkling water
Garnish with berries and fresh mint leaves

Mojitos have always intrigued me. They are so simple, yet the flavor is so complex. You may have noticed that we are big fans of seasonal summer berries, and fresh mint as well. The flavors just go well together.

Can you use other kinds of berries in mojitos?

Absolutely! In fact we recommend a mix of berries for optimum flavor. Try muddling strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries together or separately for this recipe.
