Non-Alcoholic Mojito Recipe

Mojitos are like those cool drinks you get with fresh lime juice, mint leaves, and a bit of sweetener, all mixed with soda or sparkling water and some rum. They’re super refreshing and perfect for hot days or when you just want something light and tasty.

But if you want a drink that’s fun for the whole family, this virgin mojito is the way to go! It’s a mojito without the booze, so everyone can enjoy it, even the kids and those who don’t drink alcohol. You still get that awesome lime and mint flavor, and when you add the sparkling water, it’s all bubbly and fizzy, just like a regular mojito. Plus, you can jazz it up with lime wedges and extra mint leaves to make it look fancy and taste fantastic. So, grab a glass, mix up those ingredients, pop a lime wedge on the rim, and voilà! You’ve got yourself a refreshing beverage that not only tastes good, but looks good too!

Virgin Mojito Ingredients

Bursting with zesty lime, refreshing mint, and fizzy bubbles, this virgin mojito “mocktail” is the perfect drink for the whole family to enjoy on warm days. You can find the exact measurements I used below in the recipe card.

1. Fresh Lime Juice: Adds a delicious pop of citrus flavor!
2. Agave or Sweetener of Choice: Sweeten things up just the way you like! Agave or other sweeteners like honey, granulated sugar, Stevia, or simple syrup balance out the sourness of lime juice, making it oh-so-delicious.
3. Mint Leaves: Fresh and cool, mint leaves give your drink a refreshing twist that’s perfect for beating the heat.
4. Sparkling Water: To make your virgin mojito bubbly and fun! I used plain sparkling water, but you can also use flavored sparkling water to customize your drink.
5. Wedged Limes for Garnish : These lime wedges not only look pretty but also add an extra burst of lime flavor to your drink.
6. Additional Mint Leaves for Garnish: Sprinkle in some extra mint leaves for that lovely green touch and a boost of minty goodness.
