Serves: 6 mojitos
Ingredients
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 large piece of ginger (about 1.5 oz), peeled and chopped into chunks
  • 3 medium peaches, sliced (reserve a few slices for garnish)
  • 3 limes, juiced
  • 12 ounces of rum (about 1 ½ cups)
  • about 10 mint leaves (plus more for garnish)
  • 6 cups ice
  • 5 cups club soda
Instructions
  1. Make the ginger simple syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and ginger and bring to a boil. Then, reduce to a simmer, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, about 3-4 minutes. Take the syrup off the heat and let it sit for about 15 minutes.
  2. Make the mojito: In a pitcher, muddle the peach slices, lime juice, rum, and mint leaves. Add the ice to the pitcher. Pour in the ginger simple syrup and the club soda. Stir to combine.
