Our Champagne Mojitos have rum and fresh mint like the classic recipe, but instead of sparking water, we used champagne. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute sparkling cider for the champagne.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups Simple syrup (recipe below)
2 cups packed mint leaves, plus more for garnish
8 limes cut into wedges
2 cups rum
Sparkling wine or champagne
