Mixed Berry Mojito
This mixed berry mojito combines delicious fresh raspberries, blackberries, mint and rum. It’s super delicious, perfect for spring and takes only 5 minutes to make!
I’m pretty sure my husband hates when I take over control of the remote control. Last night I was skimming through Netflix and realized there were a few new movies since it’s now April. Sooooooo that means I couldn’t resist watching one of the worst movies I have ever seen but loved – The Beautician and the Beast.
Poor Art. He has to listen to almost 2 hours of Fran Drescher. Honestly I love sappy movies like this. It was almost like watching The Nanny but with Timothy Dalton instead of Charles Shaughnessy. How can you not love that?
Luckily for Art I had a few of these cocktail just hanging around so that made the movie a little less horrible. This mojito combines fresh blackberries, fresh raspberries, mint, lime, rum and just a little Truvia to lightly sweeten things up. It’s the perfect spring cocktail that just screams warm weather porch sippin’.
To bad the weather won’t freaking warm up here in New York. It snowed yesterday. SNOWED! Blergh. This is how I feel about the lack of spring we are having. I cannot wait for the flowers to start blooming and the trees to look like they actually have leaves. Plus I would really like to open my windows and get some fresh air flowing up in this house. There are only so many oils you can diffuse to make your house smell fresh before you get to the point where you just actually need fresh air.
So if you’re winter disgruntled like me make sure to make this cocktail at Easter. {Or really any day of the year because it’s awesome and it uses your favorite no-calorie sweetener} Not only does it remind you of spring and summer but it’s nice and boozy so it’s the perfect drink to get you through family time. Do ya feel me?
Not sure what else to serve for Easter? Try my pineapple bourbon butter glazed ham, pork tenderloin with blackberry mint sauce or my rolled pork florentine.

It’s spring here, so I’ll enjoy this the way it’s supposed to be enjoyed!! I would love it if you link it to Tipsy Tuesday at Grey is the New Black!
Oh wow… I totally want this in front of me for real… I don’t care what time it is!
A Mojito is my favorite drink and with berries, why not? Great idea, Brandy!
This would make an awesome mocktail!
Totally on the same wave length, in a few ways. Mr HIT can’t stand when I have the remote even for like 5 minutes. He instantly takes it and switches back and forth. I swear its just to annoy me. And secondly, I made a blueberry mojito with truvia but have yet to post it. And of course yours looks too die for! Cheers!
Ha! Lol… I think I’m with Art! I can’t stand her voice. But I’d totally trade watching for a one of these beauties! Pinned.
It’s not too early to whip up a batch of these is it?? So beautiful!
I am a HUGE mojito fan and this version looks delicious!! I use Truvia all the time, it’s fantastic!!
I love mojitos! I always make mine with simple syrup and actually have some made in the fridge already. And mint… Oh man, I am excited to make these!
Oh wow, berries in the mojito – this sounds divine!
I’ll be drinking shots of Southern Comfort for Pascha, but I will definitely save this recipe for my first official Spring Fling – looks great!
This looks and sounds fantastic! I love all the fresh berries – I’ll be definitely making these this weekend! Hope it warms up for you soon.
Such beautiful photos! This drink looks so fresh and delicious!
yummm! really refreshing on a warm day
Ok so by 2 servings, you really mean 1, right? Please say yes, it’s been a long week.
So gorgeous! I love the combination of berries and mint! This would also be great with no alcohol as a refreshing summer drink.
My mint is starting to peek out of the ground and I’m so excited to use it!
What gorgeous photos and I love the berry ‘twist’ you’ve put on a classic mojito!
These look fabulous – The mint is blooming again in my planter box and begging to be put to good use. Happy hour sounds like a plan!
what a beautiful cocktail
It’s certainly the prettiest mojito I’ve ever seen! And to get through family time at Easter I will take 2 please!
Pass me a couple of these!! I have a feeling I would down one of these way too fast 🙂 I used to love the Nanny!! Wish I had cable so I could still watch reruns!
Oh yes, I see this mojito in my future very soon! Looks so refreshing!
Your story reminds me of the one time I was watching Pitch Perfect while my husband was home, he complained for a while but ended up being a fan!
I think these mojitos are the perfect way to ignore the snow! Will summer to come!
This is so much my kind of drink. Gorgeous!
You clearly know the way to my heart! These look like PERFECTION!
We had like 3 days of snow this winter. And now it’s decided to snow, be sunny, hail, snow, storm, sunny, and so on all day for the past few days. It’s so fun.
And this drink looks awesome. I’ve never had a mojito, as lame as that is.
I just save the Beautician and the Beast for my weekend watching, too!!
I can’t believe that it’s still snowing!! I hope it warms up for you soon! These mojitos deserve a nice warm day haha. they would be perfect for pack porch sipping!
Best looking mojito I’ve ever seen…love the flavors!
Fran’s voice is enough to make me want to rip my ears off. I will never understand you’re movie choices. Luckily, your drink decisions make up for it 😉
I remember that movie! It was both terrible and awesome at the same time. These drinks, on the other hand, are just awesome.
I am such a sucker for mojitos! This one looks especially good!
