Watermelon Mojito: Your Ticket to a Refreshing Summer Cocktail

At BAR, we love taking inspiration from favorite drinks and turning it into handcrafted goat milk soap. Our Watermelon Mojito soap captures the playful spirit of this summer favorite.

Prep time: 5 minutes
Servings: 1 cocktail

Ingredients

  • 2 oz white rum

  • 1 oz fresh lime juice

  • 1½ oz fresh watermelon juice

  • 6–8 fresh mint leaves

  • ½ oz simple syrup, optional

  • Soda water

  • Ice

  • Watermelon wedge and mint sprig, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add the mint leaves, lime juice, and simple syrup to a sturdy glass.

  2. Gently muddle the mint to release its aroma without pulverizing the leaves.

  3. Add the watermelon juice and white rum.

  4. Fill the glass with ice and stir.

  5. Top with soda water and stir gently once more.

  6. Garnish with a watermelon wedge and fresh mint.

Bartender's tip: Make fresh watermelon juice by blending ripe watermelon and straining out the pulp. Very ripe watermelon may be sweet enough that you can skip the simple syrup altogether.

Please enjoy alcoholic beverages responsibly.
