Serves: 6
Prep Time: 5 mins
Cooking Time: 5 mins

Ingredients:

- 10 Strawberries
- 2 Chopped Limes
- 2 Tbsp Sugar
- 2-3 Sprigs of Mint
- Handfuls of Ice (can be eyeballed by preference)
- 350ml White Rum
- 600ml Sparkling Water or Club Soda 

Method:

- Prep your fruit
Strawberry plants are, as you can imagine, an important ingredient for the strawberry mojito. Cut your strawberries into small chunks and your limes into slices. Take a few sprigs of mint and 'bruise' them to release its fragrance. 

- Chuck it in a pitcher

Pop all your fruit and the sugar into your pitcher of choice. Next, we add the liquids. Rum first, then your sparkling water or preferred mixer.

Finally, add your ice and mix the concoction together with a large spoon. It's now ready to serve!
