Key Lime Pie Mojito

Key Lime Pie Mojito

This is a riff on Brazilian Lemonade (which is apparently called Swiss Lemonade in Brazil - go figure). I add fresh mint and cachaca

Ingredients

  • For the limeade:
  • 3 limes
  • 2 cups water
  • 8-10 mint leaves
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 3 tbsp condensed milk
  • Alcohol:
  • 2oz cachaça or white rum
  • Garnish
  • mint sprig
  • lime slice

Directions

Cut the limes into 8ths. Add to a blender along with 1 cup of water. Blend until pulp.

Pour into a cocktail mixer. Clean down the blender, then strain the lime mixture back into the blender using a Julep Strainer or fine mesh.

Add 1 cup of water, 1 cup of ice, ⅓ cup sugar and 3 tbsp condensed milk. Blend until smooth.

Fill a high ball glass with ice. Pour in 2oz of cachaça. Fill to the top of the glass with the limeade. Stir with a long cocktail spoon to combine.

Garnish with a mint sprig and a lime slice.

Notes

Makes enough limeade for at least 4 or 5 mojitos
