The Blue Mojito is a colorful, citrusy twist on the traditional mojito, using Blue Curacao to bring a bold ocean-blue color and a subtle orange flavor. It’s minty, fizzy, and refreshing, making it perfect for parties or a summer evening. This recipe makes 2 glasses.
Ingredients
10–12 fresh mint leaves
1 lime, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons sugar (or to taste)
60 ml (about 4 tablespoons) Blue Curacao syrup or liqueur
60 ml white rum (optional, for cocktail version)
1½ cups soda water or sparkling water
Ice cubes
Extra mint and lime slices for garnish
Instructions
1. Muddle the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add mint leaves, lime wedges, and sugar. Gently press with a muddler or the back of a spoon to release the juices and mint oil.
2. Add Blue Curacao
Pour in Blue Curacao syrup (or liqueur) and stir to combine. If using white rum, add it at this stage.
3. Assemble the Drink
Fill two serving glasses with ice. Divide the muddled mint-lime mixture between them. Top each glass with soda water and stir gently.
4. Garnish and Serve
Add a sprig of mint and a lime slice to each glass. Serve immediately with a straw or stirring stick.
Tips
Use Blue Curacao syrup for a non-alcoholic version
Chill the soda water for best fizz
Try adding crushed ice for a slushy texture
This mojito is bold in color and flavor, with just the right amount of fizz and sweetness.
