Get ready for summer with this deliciously refreshing Thermomix mojito. Its combination of sweetness, citrus and mint makes it the perfect warm-weather cocktail.

Nothing says summer like a classic mojito. One sip and you're instantly in holiday mode. This is one of my favourite cocktails, alongside a classic margarita, especially when I'm in the mood for a fresh hit of lime.

Recipe Ingredients

fresh mint, limes and bacardi rum sitting on a white marble background.

Note: The recipe card below shows the full ingredients and quantities.

Fresh mint leaves - for muddling and garnish.
White rum - such as Bacardi or Havana Club.
Lime juice - I like to use fresh lime juice.
Sugar syrup - I like to use sugar syrup for a smooth and even texture. Some recipes call for brown or white granulated sugar, which you could also use.
Soda water - just a splash, depending on taste.

Step-by-Step Directions

Note: This is a summary of the instructions. The full ingredients and instructions are shown in the recipe card below.

Muddle the mint: Divide the mint leaves between two tall glasses and gently press with a muddler. If you don't have one, the end of a wooden spoon works well. Avoid pressing too hard, as this can make the mint bitter. Once muddled, add a little ice to each glass.

Add the lime juice, sugar syrup and white rum to the Thermomix bowl. Add the ice and mix for 10 seconds on reverse speed 4. Insert the simmering basket into the Thermomix bowl and strain the mojito evenly between the glasses.
Top with soda water, garnish each glass with a sprig of mint and enjoy.
