4.8 from 127 reviews

This Easy Virgin Mojito Mocktail is a refreshing, non-alcoholic twist on the classic mojito cocktail. Combining zesty lime, fresh mint, and sparkling water, it’s a perfect thirst-quencher for warm days or anytime you want a light, flavorful beverage without alcohol.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Virgin Mojito Mocktail

  • 1 small lime, quartered
  • 10 fresh mint leaves
  • 1 teaspoon sweetener of choice (such as sugar, honey, or agave syrup)
  • 1 cup sparkling water
  • 1 oz non-alcoholic rum (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Lime and Mint: Place the quartered lime and fresh mint leaves into a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker. Muddle together gently to release the lime juice and the mint’s aroma without tearing the leaves excessively.
  2. Add Sweetener: Add 1 teaspoon of your preferred sweetener to the muddled lime and mint mixture. Stir to help dissolve the sweetener and blend the flavors.
  3. Mix the Drink: Pour in 1 cup of sparkling water over the mixture. If using, add 1 oz of non-alcoholic rum for extra flavor. Stir gently to combine all ingredients without losing the fizz.
  4. Serve: Add ice cubes if desired and garnish with extra mint leaves or a slice of lime. Serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing bubbles and vibrant flavors.

Notes

  • Use any sweetener you prefer, such as granulated sugar, honey, agave, or a sugar substitute, depending on your dietary needs.
  • The non-alcoholic rum is optional and adds depth to the flavor; omit it for a completely alcohol-free drink.
  • You can adjust the amount of lime, mint, or sweetener to suit your taste preference.
  • For a less bubbly version, substitute sparkling water with soda water or still water.
