Fresh mint is easy to find during the warmer months. Whether you grow it at home in pots or pick it right from the field, mint leaves are readily available. You can head on out to your local farmers market to find plump and flavorful blackberries. Berries always taste better when they’re freshly picked, but you can pick them up at your local grocer if needed.

Make Flavorful Classic Cocktails in Minutes

This recipe is simple and straightforward, you don’t need to be an experienced bartender to make great mojitos. White rum, plenty of mint, a splash of club soda, lots of crushed ice, and homemade blackberry simple syrup are all you need. It’s a great idea to make a batch of the blackberry simple syrup ahead of time and store it in your fridge. You can make it right before creating the mojito, but you’ll need to quickly cool the syrup in the fridge or freezer. You can keep the simple syrup for up to a week in the fridge in an air-tight container.

Blackberry Mint Mojitos

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz blackberry simple syrup (6 oz fresh blackberries, 1 cup water, 1 tbsp sugar)
  • 2 cups crushed ice
  • 2 oz white rum
  • 1 oz club soda
  • 10 mint leaves, chopped with herb scissors + several sprigs of mint
  • Extra blackberries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Make the blackberry simple syrup. Add blackberries, water, and sugar to a small sauce pan. Place the contents over a low heat. Gently mash the berries with a spoon and stir occasionally. Once the contents begin to boil, remove them from the heat, and strain the simple syrup into a glass jar or plastic squeeze bottle.
  2. Add crushed ice and mint leaves to a tall glass. Mix so the mint is evenly distributed.
  3. Add rum, club soda, and blackberry simple syrup to a cocktail shaker. Shake, and pour over the ice.
  4. Garnish the drink with blackberries and mint sprigs and enjoy!

Notes

Home Chef Tip: Not everyone has a fridge that creates crushed ice. Turn normal ice cubes into crushed ice with this hack - place normal ice cubes in the center of a thin tea towel and gather the ends. You should now have a sack of ice, hit the towel over your counter repeatedly until the ice is finely crushed!

    I am not usually much of a cocktail person, but I have got to try this one! I love blackberries and I started growing my own mint this year. Mint is fairly new for me in the kitchen but I have been experimenting with it a lot since growing it :)
