easy, elegant entertaining

Hey, Reader!

I'm of the opinion that there are a few drinks every at-home bartender should have under their belt, and the classic mojito is one of them. It's easy to mix up and always a crowd pleaser. Rum, lime juice and fresh mint are a compelling combination that's delicious and refreshing; you can even opt for a virgin version so everyone can enjoy the flavors without the booze.

The mojito also plays well with others β€” flavors that is! Fruit is an easy add-in that totally transform the iconic recipe into different drinks, giving plenty of variety to satisfy every palate.

Here are some of my favorites to get you started:

blackberry mojito

The tart taste of fresh blackberries provides a welcome addition to the zesty lime, mint and sweet rum in a beautiful blackberry mojito. You can use fresh or frozen berries, making it easy to enjoy this drink anytime. Blueberries also lend a great color AND flavor to the traditional mojito if you'd prefer.

strawberry mojito

Sweet in color and in flavor, strawberry mojitos are easy to make and even easier to enjoy. These colorful cocktails brighten any kind of gathering, such as a birthday party, baby shower or wedding shower.

coconut mojito

Longing for a tropical getaway? One sip of a coconut mojito will have you hearing the waves, no matter where you are. Coconut syrup and a splash of coconut cream are the secret to this sweet sipper.

watermelon mojito

Sweet watermelon offers a balance to the bright flavors of lime and mint that is hard to beat! With its vibrant color, it'd be the perfect addition to any end-of-summer celebration.

frozen mojito

With the flavors of a classic mojito and the refreshing coolness of a frozen cocktail, frozen mojitos are your key to beating the heat in these final summer days. If you love these, definitely give mojito popsicles a try!

Can't decide on just one drink? A mojito bar is an easy way to let guests choose their own adventure, letting them craft a cocktail that fits their preferences. Plus, it's a fun addition to any occasion!

If there's a drink that knows how to hit the spot on a hot day, it's the mojito. If your forecast is looking sunny, you know what to make!

While I don't have a favorite season (they're all great for different reasons!), fall holds a special place in my heart.
