Ingredients Needed
- Rum: Every mojito recipe starts with white rum, I like Bacardi rum but you can use your favorite brand.
- Malibu: Coconut flavored liqueur that’s sweet, fruity, and tastes like coconut and almond.
- Club Soda: A mojito essential! If you don’t want to use club soda, substitute it with tonic water but keep in mind that it will make your drink taste a little different (somewhat bitter but still good).
- Coconut Milk: This ingredient will make your mojito white! I’m using the canned type, it’s creamier and tastes better.
- Lime and Fresh Mint: You can’t make a mojito without fresh lime juice or mint leaves.
- Garnishes: I used fresh mint leaves, and pomegranate arils! Other ideas are fresh cranberries, crushed candy canes, or any type of berries.
How To Make Christmas Mojitos
- In a cocktail shaker or a sturdy glass, combine sugar with fresh mint leaves and juice of a lime.
- Use a muddler and crush everything to release mint oils.
- Fill the shaker/glass with ice, pour in rum and coconut milk, cover and shake. If using a glass, just stir to combine.
- Pour into your cocktail glass, and top with club soda.
- Stir, taste, and add more sugar if desired.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and fresh pomegranate arils or fresh cranberries.
Recipe Tips
- Rim the glass with melted white chocolate, and crushed candy cane for a beautiful presentation!
- I don’t recommend making this cocktail ahead of time because there’s carobanted soda in this recipe. But the good thing is that it takes just minutes to make!
