CBD Mojito Recipe

CBD Mojito

Mojitos aren’t all that complicated to make. In fact, if you already know how to make a daiquiri, you’re more than half-way there! The crucial difference between a mojito and a daiquiri is the inclusion of fresh mint.

Indeed, since mint is such a significant flavor in a mojito, please take extra care to muddle your leaves thoroughly. You want to squeeze out all of your mint’s rich essential oils before shaking and serving your CBD cocktail.

One last note: some people like to top their mojito with Sprite rather than club soda or seltzer water. Although purists will pooh-pooh this modern addition, go ahead and try it if you want a sweeter mojito.

Ingredients

  • 4 – 6 fresh mint leaves
  • 2 ounces clear rum
  • ½ ounce lime juice
  • ½ dropperful Tribe CBD oil (citrus)
  • ½ ounce simple syrup
  • Unflavored seltzer water
  • Lime wedge

Directions

  • Place about four mint leaves at the bottom of your cocktail shaker
  • Add rum, lime juice, citrus-flavored Tribe CBD oil, and simple syrup
  • Gently muddle all of your ingredients to release the mint’s essential oils
  • Add ice and shake until well combined (about 25 seconds)
  • Strain into an ice-filled highball glass
  • Fill the glass to the rim with seltzer water
  • Garnish with a lime wedge and fresh mint leaves

Want to add even more sweetness to your mojito? Simple: drop a sugar cube into your shaker before muddling the mint leaves. Believe it or not, many bartenders use this simple trick to keep their patrons thirsty. After all, who wouldn’t crave another mojito after they’ve just swallowed a mouthful of sugar!
