Instructions
Tequila Mojito:
Fill a shaker with ice and add tequila, simple syrup and lime juice.
Shake to mix and add to highball glass filled with ice.
Top with a splash of club soda, garnish with fresh lime wedges and mint leaves and serve.
Mint Infused Simple Syrup:
Combine the water and sugar in a small pan on the stove. Simmer over medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved.
Remove from heat and add mint leaves. Let sit until simple syrup is completely cooled. Remove mint leaves from syrup. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Notes
Make the mint simple syrup ahead of time and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
Fresh lime juice is essential for a smooth cocktail. The bottled stuff contains preservatives that can give the juice a bitter taste.
Always use a tequila that is 100% agave for best flavor.
Batch Cocktail recipe (serves 8):
24 ounces of tequila
16 ounces of mint infused simple syrup
16 ounces of lime juice
Pour in large pitcher and stir. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Pour into ice filled high ball glasses, top with club soda and garnish.
