Tips:

  • For the freshest flavor, use ruby red grapefruit juice. If you can't find it, you can substitute regular grapefruit juice, but the color will be less vibrant.
  • If you don't have simple syrup, you can make your own by dissolving 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of boiling water. Let it cool before using.
  • To make a virgin mojito, simply omit the rum. You can also add a splash of club soda or ginger ale for some extra fizz.
  • Garnish your mojitos with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint for a finishing touch.
