Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups White rum
- 3 cups Fresh lime juice
- 4 cups Water
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons Lime zest
- as needed Sparkling water (optional, for serving)
- as needed Ice (to adjust texture, if needed)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the water and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely, creating a simple syrup.
Add the fresh lime juice and lime zest to the simple syrup, stirring to incorporate the flavors.
Gently muddle the fresh mint leaves in a separate small bowl or glass to release their essential oils, but avoid pulverizing them completely. Add the muddled mint leaves to the lime mixture.
Pour in the white rum and stir everything together until well mixed.
Transfer the mixture to a large, freezer-safe container and cover with a lid or plastic wrap. Place the container in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours or until the mixture is slushy. If possible, gently stir or scrape the mixture every hour or so to achieve a uniform slush texture.
Once ready to serve, scoop the mojito slush into glasses. For an even fizzier drink, top with a splash of sparkling water.
If the slush is too firm, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes or add a small amount of ice to a blender to adjust the texture.
Garnish with additional mint leaves and lime wedges, if desired, and enjoy immediately!
