Notes
- If you have ripe mangos and prefer to use fresh mango, make a mango puree using a food processor or blender. Use the mango puree instead of the mango nectar. (This works with frozen mango too).
- If you are using fresh mango, garnish with mango chunks.
- A traditional mojito usually includes sugar in the ingredients. For this mango mojito, the sweetness of the mango nectar makes it unnecessary to add sugar. However, if you use fresh mango, frozen mango, or mango juice, the drink may not be sweet enough for you. Sugar is added in the muddling stage, usually a couple of teaspoons. There is no need to make a simple syrup. Don't use brown sugar because the molasses flavor will change the mojito.
- You can also use honey or agave syrup to add extra sweetness.
- You can make a pitcher of mango mojitos. Use the "Servings" button at the top of the recipe card to change to the number of drinks that you want to make. This will give you the quantity of ingredients to use. You can make the whole recipe in a pitcher. If you aren't serving right away, save the club soda step until you are.
