The best mojito recipe you’ll ever make! This delicious Green Refreshing Mojito Cocktail is made just like the best mojitos in Mexico. So take a vacation with me while we make the most delicious mojito recipe ever!
My husband and I have been trying to perfect the mojito for a while now and thanks to one of my best friends, we finally nailed it! In the past, we simply muddled the mint leaves in the glass and then added the other ingredients. But some of the flavor was still missing!
So one of my best friends told me about this little Mojito bar she went to in Mexico that’s known as one of the best mojito bars in the world. She said that ever since drinking their mojitos she can’t go back to the other way!
And the secret is… they grind the mint leaves with the sugar to form a minty paste that blends so perfectly into your mojito! My perfect mojito does take a little extra time, but it is SO worth it and tastes so much better than your average mojito. And aren’t the good things in life worth a little extra work anyway?
Now, let me share with you another mojito twist that’s perfect for summer!

Ingredients:
- Fresh mint leaves
- 1 ripe kiwi
- A handful of green grapes
- Ice cubes
- Lemonade
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by washing the fresh mint leaves, kiwi, and green grapes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel. Peel the kiwi and cut it into small chunks. For the green grapes, you can leave them whole or cut them in half if you prefer.
Step 2: Muddle the Mint and Fruits
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add a generous handful of mint leaves, the kiwi chunks, and the green grapes. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the ingredients together. This will release the natural oils and juices, enhancing the flavor of your mojito.
Step 3: Add Ice and Lemonade
Fill the glass with ice cubes. Pour in lemonade until it reaches the top of the glass. Stir the mixture well to combine all the flavors. If you prefer your drink sweeter, you can add a splash of simple syrup or honey at this stage.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Garnish your Green Mojito Cocktail with a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of kiwi or a few whole green grapes. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing taste of summer!
Tips for the Perfect Mojito:
- For an extra burst of flavor, you can add a splash of soda water or tonic water to your mojito.
- If you like a tangy twist, squeeze in some fresh lime juice before serving.
- Experiment with other fruits like cucumber or green apple for a unique twist on the classic mojito.
