This Cherry Mojito is light and refreshing. It's the perfect summer cocktail.

It also tastes great as a mocktail, which is how I like it. Since it's made with fresh or frozen cherries, you can have it any time of the year.

🧾 Ingredients

Rum: I use light rum, which is the classic mojito ingredient. It is also known as white rum or silver rum. You could also use vodka for a vodka mojito.
Cherries: I used frozen cherries because I always have them on hand for smoothies. You could use fresh cherries if they're in season. You could also use cherry juice.
Fresh lime juice: I used freshly squeezed lime juice. I don't recommend store-bought lime juice because it has additives.
Agave syrup: Adds sweetness. You could also use simple syrup.
Fresh mint leaves: Adds the minty flavor mojitos are known for. I grow mint indoors. It saves me a lot of money since I love mint so much. Spearmint (or sweet mint) is best for mojitos. Peppermint is too strong.
Club soda: Any sparkling water will work.
