Instructions

Notes

Store fresh blueberries in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Make simple syrup by mixing equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat until sugar dissolves, then cool before using.
For a non-alcoholic version, replace rum with club soda and prosecco with sparkling apple juice.
The cocktail can be made up to 2 hours ahead – just add the sparkling wine right before serving.

Tasting Notes

This sparkling blueberry mojito brings a fresh twist to the classic cocktail. The drink starts with sweet notes from muddled blueberries and simple syrup.

Mint adds a cool, crisp layer that balances the fruit sweetness. The lime juice creates a bright, tart element that makes the flavors pop.

White rum provides a smooth, clean base that lets the other ingredients shine. Club soda adds effervescence and lightens the texture.

The drink has a beautiful purple-blue color from the fresh blueberries. Each sip combines sweet, tart, and minty notes in perfect balance.

Key flavor elements:

  • Sweet blueberry
  • Fresh mint
  • Tart lime
  • Clean rum
  • Light bubbles

The texture is light and refreshing with tiny bubbles from the club soda. Ice keeps the drink extra cold and helps blend the flavors as it melts.

This cocktail works well for hot summer days or as a fun party drink. The taste stays bright and clean from start to finish.

Must Have Ingredients

Substitute

You can make a non-alcoholic version of this drink by replacing the rum with extra sparkling water or club soda. The drink will still keep its fresh, minty taste.

For a different flavor profile, swap the blueberries with blackberries or raspberries. These fruits blend well with mint and lime to create a similar taste experience.

No fresh mint on hand? Use 1/4 teaspoon of mint extract instead. The flavor won’t be as bright, but it works in a pinch.

Replace the lime juice with lemon juice for a slightly different citrus kick. The change creates a lighter, more subtle drink that still feels refreshing.

Sugar alternatives:

Want extra bubbles? Trade regular water for tonic water. The quinine adds a mild bitter note that balances the sweet fruit.

Short on fresh blueberries? Frozen ones work just as well. Let them thaw first, then muddle them as normal.
