Notes
For the perfect Moonlit Mojito, be sure to muddle the mint leaves gently—this releases their flavor without turning them bitter. Freshly squeezed lime juice is a must for that bright, zesty kick. If you prefer a sweeter drink, adjust the amount of simple syrup to taste. To keep the mojito light and fizzy, top it off with chilled soda water, and for an extra-refreshing touch, garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime wheel. Enjoy it on a warm evening for the ultimate relaxing vibe!
