How to Make Mint Simple Syrup

  • In a saucepan on medium high heat add sugar, water, and fresh mint.
  • Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves
  • Turn off the heat and set aside to allow to cool completely for 20 minutes

Making the Raspberry Mojito

  • In the bottom of your mojito glass add in lime juice, raspberries, and mint simple syrup
  • Muddle together for 3-4 minutes until fully combined and mint flavor has infused throughout
  • Add in your rum and ice. Stir again

Notes

Why mint syrup over simple syrup?
Infusing a simple syrup with mint ensures a stronger mint flavor if desired. You can muddle the mint with the syrup in your glass instead if desired.
