I've been on a mojito kick lately. This Peach Mojito is just one of a few mojito recipes I've made.
I love the combination of flavors; lime juice, fresh mint, agave syrup, light rum, and club soda.
Add in a fresh peach that's been muddled to get the juices out and you have a sweet fruity cocktail.
Other drinks with light rum include my Passion Fruit Mojito, Frozen Peach Daiquiri, and Lemon Ginger Mojito.

โค๏ธ Why You'll Love It
- This peach mojito cocktail is sweet and fruity.
- It is a fun twist on a classic cocktail.
- It's light and refreshing; perfect for a hot summer day.
๐งพ 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.
- Peach: You can use fresh peaches or frozen. You could also use store-bought peach puree.
- Fresh lime juice: I used fresh squeezed lime juice. I don't recommend store-bought lime juice because it has additives. You could also use fresh lemon juice for another twist.
- 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.

๐ช Instructions
Step 1: Add sliced peach, mint leaves, and lime juice into a cocktail shaker. Muddle to break up the mint leaves and the peach.
You could also blend the peach in a blender to puree it or use a pestle and mortar.
Step 2: Add ice, agave syrup, and rum to the cocktail shaker. Put the cover on and give it a good shake.
Step 3: Pour the mojito mixture into a glass filled with ice cubes.
Step 4: Top with club soda, stir, and garnish with a mint sprig or lime wedges.
๐ญ Tip
To get more juice out of a lime microwave it at 15-second intervals until it softens up. Let cool before handling.
