Blood Orange Mojito
This blood orange mojito is such a fun variation on a classic cocktail. I LOVE a good Mojito Cocktail and while I’m a huge fan of the classic recipe, I always love a fun twist as well. This Blood Orange Mojito is simple to make and such a great way to enjoy blood orange season!

Instructions
Simple Syrup
- Step 1
In a small saucepan set over medium-high heat, combine the water, granulated sugar, mint leaves, and blood orange juice. Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat. Cover and allow the syrup to steep for 30 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the mint leaves and orange pulp.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
