Place raw sugar on a small plate. Rim the lip of two tall glasses with honey and press into the raw sugar. Set aside.
Place 6 mint leaves, 1 lime wedge, 3 strawberries, ½ pineapple slice, juice of half a lime, and ¼ teaspoon sugar in each glass. Use a muddler (or bottom of a wooden spoon) to gently muddle ingredients.
Fill each glass with ice, 2 ounces of rum, and ½ cup of pineapple juice. Gently stir and top with a splash of sparkling water. Garnish with a pineapple and strawberry on a skewer.
Notes
I have the perfect appetizer to pair with this cocktail.Optional Variations:
Strawberry Vodka Mojito - Making your strawberry mojito with vodka might not be traditional, but it’s a great way to let the fruity flavors shine. You’re also welcome to make a strawberry tequila mojito instead!
Frozen Strawberry Mojito - Swap in pineapple or strawberry sorbet in place of juice, then toss everything in a blender and blitz until smooth and frosty.
Different Herbs - Try making a strawberry basil mojito, a pineapple cilantro mojito, or a pineapple, strawberry, & tarragon mojito for a fun new twist.
Pineapple Strawberry Mojito Mocktail - Either use your favorite NA rum or swap in extra sparkling water or lemon-lime soda to make a tasty drink that even the kiddos can enjoy.
