Summertime Strawberry Mojito

Directions

Ingredients :

5 limes

1 bunch mint sprigs

plus more for garnish

1 cup white rum

½ cup strawberry syrup (such as Torani®)

2 cups chilled club soda

6 cups ice cubes

2 tablespoons Sugar for rimming glasses

6 strawberries

for garnish

Methods :

Juice 4 limes, yielding about 1/2 cup juice, and cut remaining lime into 6 wedges.

Grasp mint sprig stems and slap leaves against a work surface to help release their oil; transfer to a sturdy glass pitcher. Stir in lime juice, rum, and strawberry syrup. Add club soda.

Spread 1/4 to 1/2 inch sugar on a small, shallow plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip glass into sugar. Fill with ice. Pour in mojito mixture. Garnish with mint sprigs and strawberries.
