- Make sure your limes are ripe: Ripe limes are juicier and have a more intense flavor than unripe limes. If you're not sure if your limes are ripe, squeeze them gently. If they give slightly, they're ripe.
- Use filtered water: Filtered water will help to remove any impurities that could affect the taste of your mojito.
- Chill your glass before serving: This will help to keep your mojito cold and refreshing.
