Watermelon Mojito

What is Watermelon Mojito?

A Watermelon Mojito is one of those drinks that just feels like summer in a glass. Fresh mint, juicy watermelon, bright lime, and a splash of rum come together in a way that somehow feels both cooling and energizing. I always think of this one as the kind of cocktail you reach for when the day has been a little too long and you want something that instantly lifts the mood. It has that breezy, vacation personality that makes you smile before the first sip.

This version leans into real watermelon flavor instead of sugary mixes, so the drink tastes clean and refreshing. The balance of the mint and lime makes it pop, while the rum keeps everything feeling classic and familiar. Whether you're serving a crowd or just treating yourself, this cocktail is one of the easiest ways to bring sunshine to your menu. Honestly, why not make a pitcher while you’re at it?
