- 5 units of Tonic Water

How to make Passion Fruit Mojito:
- The first step for the elaboration of our aphrodisiac cocktails is to prepare the ingredients of the recipe.
- Cut the lemons in half and add to each glass one of the halves cut into small pieces, as shown in the photograph. We reserve the other half to use later with the Valentine’s mojitos.
- Add a tablespoon of white sugar, or brown if you prefer, to each of the glasses where we have the lemon in small squares and add some mint leaves, about 15 per glass.
- With the help of a wooden spoon, macerate the sugar with the lemons and mint leaves as shown in the photograph. This is how the base of this special drink for Valentine’s Day is made.
- Once the ingredients are macerated, add the passion fruit or passion fruit as shown in the photo, it is important that all the ingredients are mixed very well. If you do not have the natural fruit you can use a little pulp.
- Add ice to cool our drink and we can serve our aphrodisiac cocktail cold. Add the juice of the remaining half lemon to each glass and mix very well.
- Add the tonic water and mix very well with all the ingredients that we found in the glasses. Tonic water or aguaquina will give the cocktail a strong flavor, if you want to emphasize the flavor of the fruit more you can use soda.
- Finally add a glass of rum (white or dark, whichever you want) and mix very well until integrating the ingredients of our aphrodisiac mojito.
- Serve this delicious Valentine’s cocktail by adding a mixer to each of the glasses. Remember that this drink must be made at the moment to prevent excess ice from melting and leaving our aphrodisiac mojito watery.
