Notes

The La Mojita Cocktail offers a delightful twist on the traditional mojito by incorporating raspberries for a fruity flair. Muddling the mint leaves with sugar and lime juice is key to releasing the full flavor of the mint, which enhances the overall freshness of the drink. Using fresh raspberries and high-quality vodka will ensure the best taste.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference if you like your drinks sweeter or more tart. For an extra burst of raspberry flavor, consider adding a splash of raspberry liqueur. This cocktail is perfect for outdoor events, summer parties, or simply a refreshing drink to enjoy on a warm day.
