Blackberry Mojito

BLACKBERRY MOJITO😍

Nothing screams summer quite like a refreshing mojito, and this one made with blackberry jam is one of my favorites. It’s deliciously refreshing, the perfect amount of sweetness, and tastes just as good as a mocktail if that’s more your jam (get it ;)) ok I’m done with the puns lol. Save this recipe to come back to this weekend and all summer long, because you’re gonna love this one! 

Serves 1.

Ingredients:

For the Blackberry Mojito:

• 8-10 fresh mint leaves

• 2 tbsps blackberry jam (I like Bonne Maman jam the best)

• Juice from ½ lime

• 2-2.5 oz vodka or rum (optional - omit for a mocktail)

• Ice 

• Club soda or sparkling water (I like lime flavored Spindrift, but use what you like!)

• Lime wedges for topping

Directions:

For the Blackberry Mojito:

• Add mint leaves to the bottom of a cocktail glass and bruise slightly to release the flavors of the mint. 

• Add in blackberry jam, lime juice, and rum or vodka (if using) and stir until well combined.

• Fill the glass with ice and top with club soda. Mix well and serve with a straw, enjoy!
