Blackberry Basil Mojito

Very light and refreshing. Perfect for summer!

This is an altered version of the Minmalist Baker’s recipe:

·       1 Tbsp brown sugar

·       1/2 orange (the original recipe calls for lime)

·       3 blackberries

·       6-7 basil leaves

·       1.7 ounces white rum (we used a spiced local organic rum)

·       1 cup crushed ice

·       1/4 cup soda water

1. Gently mash the sugar, orange juice, and blackberries in a glass.
2. Add the basil and continue to mix together.
3. Add the rum and stir. Then add the ice and the club soda.
4. Use the basil leaves and/or blackberries for garnish.
