    Black Mojito (Mocktail)

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    This Black Mojito Mocktail is one of my favorite refreshing and low sugar mocktails.

    It is made with freshly muddled blackberries, mint, soda water, lime and a touch of simple syrup.

    The fresh blackberries give this a pop of black color along with a purple hue from the muddled berries, making this a perfect moody and sultry mocktail.

    Over The Spoon for:

    A low sugar mocktail

    An easy and refreshing drink

    A great recipe for fresh blackberries

    What do you need to make a Black Mojito Mocktail:

    Fresh blackberries - you could use thawed frozen blackberries (or raspberries)

    Fresh mint - you need to use fresh

    Lime - fresh lime is best but you could use lime juice

    Lime Sparkling Water - or plain soda water

    Simple Syrup - this is optional but adds a touch of sweet balance!

    How to make a Black Mojito Mocktail:

    Start by muddling blackberries in a wide glass.

    Slap mint leaves between your hands to express the oils - trust me! - and lightly press the mint into the berries.

    Squeeze lime juice and a touch of lime zest.

    Pour in sparkling water and stir.

    Add a touch of simple syrup to your desired sweetness.

    Pour with a strainer into a glass and serve with fresh berries and mint garnish.

    Making more than one mojito mocktail?

    Simply double or triple this recipe in a pitcher. I recommend leaving out the simple syrup to allow each guest to add enough sweetness to each mocktail.

    If you would like to add alcohol to your mocktail, add about 1 ounce of white rum to each drink for a more classic black mojito.

    If you are a fan of this recipe you should try my (Easy!)German Mulled Wine (Gluhwein)

    I hope you are Over the Spoon for this recipe!
