A quick and easy frozen blueberry mojito pitcher perfect for summer parties, combining fresh mint, lime, rum, and a slushy blueberry twist for a refreshing and crowd-pleasing drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries (about 300g) or frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) white rum
  • Juice of about 4 limes (approximately ½ cup / 120 ml fresh lime juice)
  • ½ cup (4 fl oz / 120 ml) simple syrup (homemade or store-bought)
  • 2 cups (16 fl oz / 480 ml) chilled soda water
  • Ice cubes (for blending and serving)

Instructions

  1. Wash and pat dry fresh mint leaves and blueberries. Juice the limes until you have about ½ cup (120 ml) of fresh lime juice. If using frozen blueberries, no need to thaw.
  2. In the blender pitcher, add the mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or wooden spoon to gently bruise the mint leaves for about 30 seconds to release oils without bitterness.
  3. Add blueberries and simple syrup to the blender. Blend on medium speed for 30-45 seconds until smooth but still thick and slushy. If too thick, add a splash of soda water to help blend.
  4. Pour in the white rum and pulse the blender 2-3 times just to combine, keeping some texture for the frozen feel.
  5. Transfer the blended mojito base into a chilled pitcher. Add soda water and gently stir to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice if needed.
  6. Serve immediately by filling glasses with ice cubes and pouring the mojito pitcher over. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and whole blueberries.

Notes

Keep the pitcher chilled before serving to maintain icy freshness. For prepping ahead, store the mojito base without soda water in the fridge up to 24 hours and add soda just before serving. Use frozen blueberries for a better slushy texture without watering down the drink. Muddle mint gently to avoid bitterness. Adjust sweetness and lime to taste. Non-alcoholic version can be made by omitting rum and adding extra soda water or sparkling lemonade.
