Description

If you want a real taste of Cuba, you have to start with a mojito. Rum, lime juice, mint…you've got the drink of Hemingway in your hands. For a delicious spin on the classic, try this version. Sweet, tart, and bursting with fruity flavor, blackberries are an outstanding addition.

Ingredients

8 fresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup fresh blackberries
1 tablespoon light agave syrup
Ice cubes
1/2 cup light rum
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Crushed ice
Lime-flavored club soda
Lime slices, for garnish

Directions

  1. 1. Add the mint leaves, blackberries, and agave syrup to a cocktail shaker. Using a muddler or the handle of a wooden spoon, muddle the ingredients until the mint is fragrant. Add the ice cubes, rum, and lime juice. Cover and shake vigorously to chill.
  2. 2. Fill 2 rocks or highball glasses with crushed ice and strain the liquid into the glasses. Top with club soda and garnish each with a slice of lime.
