What Does Watermelon Mint Mojito Mocktail Taste Like?

This Watermelon Mint Mojito Mocktail is incredibly refreshing and tasty! It has a light, summery flavor from the watermelon and mint, and a tangy hint of lime. The bubbly sparkling water adds an enjoyable fizzy texture to the drink that makes it even more fun to sip on.

Want to add a little spice to mix things up? Place some jalapeno pepper in your glass whilst muddling together and add a jalapeno ring to the glass as a garnish. Watermelon pairs beautifully with a little extra spice!

What Seltzer Water Should I Use?

We suggest using homemade sparkling water for the best results with your mocktail. This is because store-bought sparkling water may contain added sugar and preservatives, which can impact the flavor of your drink.

At home, you can use a soda machine to adjust the amount of carbonation as per your preference. Additionally, instead of buying seltzer water from stores, owning a machine can save you money in the long term by allowing you to refill and exchange the CO2 canisters used in most soda machines. This is also an eco-friendly alternative!
