Serves 1.

Ingredients:

For the Blackberry Coconut Mojito:

  • Ā½ a lime, quartered

  • 1-2 tsps sugar

  • 8-10 mint leaves

  • 3 blackberries

  • 3oz coconut or regular rum**

  • Sparkling water to top (I love using the Coconut Yuzu Sparkling Water from Trader Joeā€™s)

  • Ice 

**Note:  I used RumHaven - a cleaner version of Malibu. I donā€™t recommend Malibu as it can be quite sweet. You can either do half malibu half regular rum, all regular rum, or all Malibu and just not add any sugar.



Directions:

For the Blackberry Coconut Mojito:

  • Add the lime wedges, sugar, blackberries, and mint to the bottom of a cocktail glass and muddle to release the juices from the lime and blackberries.

  • Add in the rum, stir, then add in a bit of ice and stir again. 

  • Add more ice and top with the sparkling water. Stir and enjoy!
