Escape to a world of flavors with the Mango Mojito, a refreshing cocktail that combines the sweetness of ripe mangoes, the invigorating zest of lime, and the herbaceous notes of mint, all perfectly balanced with sparkling rum and a splash of soda water. This delightful drink is a symphony of tropical flavors, perfect for sipping on a warm summer day or enjoying as a festive party libation.
**This article features two tantalizing variations of the Mango Mojito:**
**1. Classic Mango Mojito:**
This recipe stays true to the traditional mojito formula, using fresh mint leaves, lime wedges, and simple syrup to create a harmonious blend of flavors. The addition of sweet and juicy mango chunks adds a vibrant tropical touch that elevates the mojito to new heights.

MINTY MANGO MOJITO
This is a fun alternative to a standard mojito that I kinda came up with just playing around one day! Perfect drink for sipping by the pool, or chugging after a long day of work! If you want to be real fancy, feel free to garnish glass with mint, lime, and/or mango.

Steps:
- Purée mangoes in blender or processor until smooth. Transfer 1 1/2 cups purée to medium bowl (reserve remaining purée for another use). Mix yogurt, 4 tablespoons sugar, spiced rum, fresh lime juice, and chopped mint into purée. Sweeten sauce to taste with more sugar, if desired. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
Tips:
- Use ripe mangoes. The riper the mangoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your mojito will be.
- Choose a light rum. A light rum will allow the flavors of the mango and mint to shine through.
- Don't over-muddle the mint. You want to release the mint's flavor without making the mojito bitter.

- Serve the mojito immediately. Mojitos are best enjoyed fresh. .
