Black Currant Mojito

Ready to cool off with a fresh twist on a classic mojito? This Black Currant Mojito is abundantly fruity and slightly sparkling. Black currants from the gooseberry family grow on shrubs and are commonly used to create jams, jellies, and syrups. Black currants are small, dark black berries, with a concentrated flavor of raspberry, blackberry, and passionfruit. The combination of black currant jam, lemon, mint, sugar, and rum in these Black Currant Mojitos makes for a fruity and fresh twist on a classic mojito. (If you're looking for a mocktail version, just omit the rum.)
