Notes
Tips and variations
- Freshly squeezed vs. bottled lime juice - When in doubt, always go for freshly squeezed! Fresh citrus juice is much brighter and tastes noticeably different in drinks.
- Slap the mint - The key to releasing the minty fresh aromas is by literally “slapping” the mint leaves. Hold the leaves in one hand and smack them over your other hand. This will warm up the oils and release the aromas and flavors before you begin muddling.
- Adding warm spices - Warm, earthy spices pair perfectly with tropical fruit juices. Garnish your passion fruit mojito with a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg or replace the simple syrup with cinnamon-infused simple syrup.
