Description
Grapefruit Mojitos – the perfect recipe for two! Grapefruit juice, lime juice, honey, mint leaves, white rum, and sparkling water. Naturally sweet and pink!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large pink grapefruits
- 2–3 limes
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3–4 ounces white rum
- a handful of mint leave
- sparking water
Instructions
- Squeeze the juice out of the grapefruits and limes. Filter through a fine mesh strainer to remove seeds and pulp. Stir the honey in with the juices until dissolved (sometimes I give the mixture a few seconds in the microwave to get the honey really incorporated, otherwise it clumps together when you add the ice).
- For one drink, vigorously shake the following in a cocktail shaker: a handful of ice, half of the rum, and half of the juice mixture which should be about 2/3 cup of juice, and several torn mint leaves. If you don’t have a shaker, use a jar with a tight fitting lid or just stir it all up in a glass.
- Pour the drink into the glass with or without the ice (your call! we leave the ice in). Give it all a good stir to get the mint leaves going and top it off with sparking water.
Notes
If you want a stronger drink, serve without the ice and/or sparkling water.
