Blue Mojito Ingredients
First, muddle the mint leaves and sugar together. Muddling is like mashing. Put into a tall cup. Then, squeeze the lime on top. Next, fill the cup with crushed ice. Pour ginger ale or club soda over the ice to fill the cup a little over 3/4’s full. Add a shot of rum and a half shot of blue curacao: stir it in for a colorfully cooling drink!
