    As summer is in full swing and the temperatures are rising, fresh fruit and cold drinks are top of mind.  A Strawberry Mojito Cocktail is a take on the classic mojito made of mint and lime but when the strawberries are bright and sweet, they must be added.  Muddled strawberries and mint make the most refreshing flavor paired with fresh lime juice, rum, a dash of simple syrup to sweeten it up and club soda for the fizz.

    How To Make A Strawberry Mojito Cocktail 

    Prepare the Simple Syrup
    Simple syrup is always great to keep on hand and can be made in advance.  Simple syrup is made with only two ingredients, granulated sugar and water, and needs to be boiled until the sugar is dissolved.  Once the sugar is dissolved, remove the syrup from the heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.  Store the simple syrup in a glass jar in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.  This simple syrup can be used for many different cocktails or is perfect to sweeten homemade lemonade.

    Strawberry Mojito
    Once the simple syrup is made, you are ready to begin.  Grab three fresh strawberries, quarter them and place them in the bottom of a high ball glass with chopped fresh mint leaves.  Muddle the fruit and mint to release the juices and the aroma from the mint leaves before adding the fresh lime juice, rum and simple syrup.  The last step of this sweet and refreshing cocktail is the bubbles of club soda.  Club soda is unsweetened and adds the perfect amount of fizz to the sweet and tart strawberry and lime combination.  You are ready to serve and enjoy just the way it is or add a fresh mint leaf and a slice of lime to fancy your glass up.  Enjoy!
