Black Cherry Mojito Recipes

BLACK CHERRY MOJITO

Steps:

• Make a simple syrup by combining equal parts of sugar and water.
• Add pitted cherries.
• Stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Let cool.
• Muddle together the mint, lime juice and 3-4 tsp of the cherry simple syrup.
• Add club soda and rum.
• Garnish with maraschino (or Moonshine!) cherries.
• Add ice as desired.

BLENDED CHERRY MOJITOS

Steps:

• Place the frozen cherries, crushed ice, mint leaves, lime juice, rum, and simple syrup in a blender. Blend until smooth.
• Pour the mixture into chilled glasses and top with crushed ice. Garnish with lime wedges and cherries.
• Lime Simple Syrup
• In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and lime zest over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool for 20 minutes. Strain before using.
• Yield: 1 2/3 cups

CHERRY LIME MOJITO

Steps:

• 1. Gather ingredients.
• 2. Place the mint and lime wedges in a glass and using a wooden spoon "muddle" together.
• 3. Add cherry juice to the glass.
• 4. Add sparkling water (or Sprite if you want it to be super sweet). Put ice in the glass.
• 5. Add clear rum and give a gentle stir or two.
• 6. Garnish with sliced lime, a cherry or two and a few mint leaves for an elegant presentation.
• 7. It is possible to increase the ingredients on this drink and make them in a pitcher, but I highly recommend against it. The flavor combinations don't come out quite right poured compared to individually mixed.
