Print Recipe

A crisp and refreshing non-alcoholic mojito mocktail featuring muddled fresh blueberries, mint, lime juice, simple syrup, and sparkling water. Perfect for summer, this easy-to-make drink balances sweet, tart, and herbal notes for a lively and sophisticated flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup fresh blueberries (about 75g), washed
  • 10 fresh mint leaves, gently torn
  • Juice of 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons or 30ml), freshly squeezed
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons simple syrup (15-30ml), adjust to taste
  • 1 cup sparkling water (240ml), chilled
  • Ice cubes, enough to fill the glass
  • Optional garnish: extra mint sprigs, lime slices, or whole blueberries

Instructions

  1. Wash blueberries and mint leaves thoroughly. Juice the lime fresh and chill the sparkling water ahead of time.
  2. In a glass or sturdy mixing glass, add ½ cup blueberries and 10 torn mint leaves. Gently muddle with a muddler or the back of a spoon for about 30 seconds to release juices and aroma without pulverizing the mint.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice and 1 to 2 tablespoons simple syrup, depending on sweetness preference. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Fill the glass about halfway with ice cubes to chill the drink without diluting it too quickly.
  5. Pour 1 cup chilled sparkling water over the ice and stir gently once or twice to mix without losing bubbles.
  6. Garnish with a sprig of mint, a slice of lime, and a few whole blueberries. Serve immediately for best fizz and flavor.

Notes

Muddle gently to avoid bitterness from mint stems. Use freshly squeezed lime juice for best flavor. Adjust simple syrup to taste. Keep sparkling water cold and add last to preserve fizz. Can prepare blueberry-mint mixture up to 24 hours ahead; add sparkling water and ice just before serving. Avoid reheating. For a twist, swap blueberries with other berries or add herbs like basil or rosemary.
