    🍹 What is a Raspberry Mojito Mocktail?

    A raspberry mojito mocktail is a light pink and delightful combination of raspberry simple syrup, lime juice, club soda and mint leaves. This easy to make non-alcoholic drink is packed full of light and refreshing raspberry flavor that is swirled together with a little fizz and hint of mint.

    This drink is an easy to make non-alcoholic twist on a classic mojito. Typically, mojitos are made with lime juice, simple syrup, mint leaves and rum. Taking the rum out and adding in club soda gives you a plain mojito mocktail.

    This mocktail takes it even a step further by taking that plain mojito drink and ramping it up by using a raspberry flavored simple syrup to give this an extra sweet berry flavor. And, it’s still super easy to make, it can be stirred up and under 8 minutes. You can also make other flavored mojito mocktails such as this strawberry mojito mocktail or a mango mojito mocktail.

    As if that’s not enough, here are a few reasons that this recipe is a must try:

    • Light and refreshing. The fresh mint and sparkling club soda creates a refreshing and invigorating sipping experience that you’re sure to love.
    • Beautiful berries. This is full of Sweet raspberry flavor. However, it’s not an overly sweet drink so it still feels like a fresh based fruit mocktail.
    • Perfect for everyone. This is a great drink to serve up from kids to adults alike. You can serve it at most any occasion and everyone is sure to enjoy it

    ⭐ When to Make This Drink

    This refreshing and easy to make mocktail is well suited for serving up at so many different occasions. Here are a few suggestions to think about:

    • Barbecues
    • Brunch
    • Baby showers
    • Beach days

    📖 Variations

    One of the great things about this mocktail is that you can customize it in a wide variety of different ways. Try out a few of these ingredients substitutions and flavor variations:

    • Muddle raspberries. Give it even more fresh fruit flavor to this drink by muddling a few raspberries in with the mint leaves. This can replace the raspberry syrup for plain syrup or be an addition to.
    • Use a flavored seltzer water. Instead of using plain club soda you can ramp up the flavors in this drink by using a flavored fizzy water. Some good options include raspberry flavor or lime flavor.
    • Make a large batch. Multiply your ingredients by six times and mix this together in a punch bowl or pitcher if you want to serve it for a crowd.
    • Freeze it up. Add ice and all of your ingredients into a blender. Then, blend everything together to make this a slushy mocktail.
    • Add additional garnishes. Make this even more eye catching by adding a couple fresh raspberries on a cocktail pick or a lime wedge to the rim of the glass.
