Servings: 2
Calories: 227kcal
Ingredients
- 8 fresh mint leaves, plus 2 mint sprigs for garnish
- 60 g fresh lime juice, approximately 2-3 limes
- 60 g sugar syrup, see notes
- 120 g white rum, such as Barcardi or Havana Club
- 75 g ice cubes, plus extra for the glasses
- Soda water
Instructions
- 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. Add a little ice to each glass.
- Add the lime juice, sugar syrup, white rum and approximately 75g ice to the Thermomix bowl and mix for 10 sec/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.
Notes
Sugar syrup: Sugar syrup is made by stirring together equal parts sugar and boiling water until dissolved. See my recipe for making your own sugar syrup in the Thermomix.
If you don't have any on hand, you can simply add 1-2 teaspoons of white or brown sugar to the glass.
