What started as a Cuban cocktail hundreds of years ago has been transformed into a flavor explosion today with amazing flavors. Traditionally the mojito is made of white rum, sugar (sugar cane juice), lime juice, mint and sparkling water. Today, we find delicious variations, just like the one I am sharing with you today, courtesy of Sparkling ICE. A refreshing twist from the norm and sugar free for those that love to save calories or cannot have sugar products.
Cherry Lime Mojito Recipe
4 oz. Cherry Limeade Sparkling ICE
1.5 oz. White Rum
10 Mint leaves (plus a few more for garnish)
6 Cherries (stems and pits removed)
Lime slices for garnish
Directions
In a large, sturdy glass, muddle together the mint and cherries until lightly-smashed
Stir in the rum and then top with Cherry Limeade Sparkling ICE over ice. Stir gently to mix.
Garnish with fresh cherries, mint leaves, and lime slices.

This looks so delicious. I am going to try this drink out on my girlfriends next weekend during my jewelry party. Thanks for the recipe.
I do enjoy Sparkling Ice and have not had rum in a while. Perhaps I shall try this drink soon. I love almost anything with cherries in it.
Cherries and lime go together so very well. I’d like this.
Sounds good and refreshing. I really enjoy rum and like the addition of it…often these drinks use vodka instead. I love Sonic’s cherry limeades and how fun to have an “adult” version with the added kick of mint. Thanks.
Cherry lime is one of my favorite flavors when combined together, great party drink! Will be serving this at my next dinner party!
I saw mojito and had to check out the recipe. I have a few more containers of Crystal Light drink mix (bargain at dollar store) with mojito and pomtini flavors. This recipe gives me some great ideas since I don’t drink alcohol. Cherries sound and look yummy.
This recipe sounds really good I like rum and this would be perfect for an outside get together while we still have a tiny bit of warm weather left thanks for sharing.
