Instructions

For the Puree:

  • In a small saucepan, add the raspberries, water, and sugar. Cook for 5-6 minutes until thickened—strain with a sieve to remove the seeds and smooth the mixture.
  • For storage, add to a bottle or jar. This recipe makes approximately 2 cups of puree that can be used any time you want to make a mojito.

For the mojitos:

  • In a 10 to 12-ounce highball glass, crush three raspberries and mint leaves together with a cocktail muddler or the back of a spoon.
  • Add the ice and some whole raspberries, then the rum and raspberry puree, and top up the glass with the soda water. Gently stir.
  • Garnish with the mint sprigs.
