Tag: Mojito recipe

While the classic mojito is a well-known rum-based cocktail, the watermelon mojito is far more versatile than you might think. Its alcoholic status depends entirely on the recipe being used, with many variations created as refreshing, non-alcoholic mocktails.

According to several online sources and classic recipes, a standard mojito cocktail can contain anywhere from 12 to 26 grams of sugar per serving. This wide range depends on the exact recipe used, the type of sweetener, and the natural sugar from lime juice. The simple, refreshing combination of rum, lime, mint, and sugar makes the mojito an immensely popular choice, but its seemingly light profile can be deceivingly sugary.
