Strawberry Mojito

The simple syrup recipe in the Notes is for a larger batch of simple syrup to keep on hand. It keeps for months in the fridge if you store it in a clean container. If you don't want to make the simple syrup (although it always great to have on hand) you can muddle in about 1 tablespoon (or to taste) of sugar instead.

Ingredients

  • 1 ounce (30 ml) simple syrup , or to taste

  • 1 ounce (30 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 2 ounces (60 ml) light rum
  • 3-4 ounces (180-240 ml) soda water

Instructions

Notes
