BLOOD ORANGE MOJITO
I created this blood orange mojito when I wanted to do a pomagranate mojito and my juice was not good. I had to substitute with another juice and I chose Blood orange juice. Then it was too sweet. I had to reduce the quantity of sugar.

- For the cinnamon syrup: Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the cinnamon sticks and continue to simmer until the flavors are infused, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool, then strain and discard the cinnamon sticks. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
- For the mojito: Add the mint, lime wedges and 1 ounce cinnamon syrup to a cocktail shaker and muddle. Fill with the ice, and add the rum and orange juice and shake briefly. Pour directly into a highball glass. Top off with the sparkling wine and stir briefly. Garnish with a mint sprig and blood orange slice.
Tips:
- To choose ripe blood oranges, look for ones that are deep red in color and feel heavy for their size.
- Roll the blood oranges on the counter before juicing to help release more juice.
- If you don't have simple syrup, you can make your own by combining equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan and heating over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Be careful not to over-muddle the mint leaves, as this can release bitter flavors.
- Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint for a refreshing presentation.
