Watermelon Jalapeño Mojito

This mojito recipe was inspired by my mission to create the perfect cocktail to pair with the Chorizo Tostadas with Watermelon Serrano Salsa I made earlier this week. Let me just say, mission accomplished! Ingredients

• 2 (1 inch) cubes fresh watermelon
• 1 small lime (juiced)
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tbsp fresh mint leaves
• 3 slices fresh jalapeño (de-seeded)
• 2 oz white rum
• Ice
• 1 cup ginger ale

Add the watermelon, lime juice, sugar, mint and jalapeno to a glass. Muddle everything together. Add the rum and ice to the glass. Top with the ginger ale. Light and refreshing with just a slight kick of spice, the perfect drink for sipping by the pool! Since I made these in the middle of the afternoon… on a Monday, I made one as the recipe suggests, then I made one without the rum to sip on while I finished the days work. Both were equally delicious! Because there's so much flavor in the mint, watermelon and jalapeño, simply topped with ginger ale, this makes a delicious virgin cocktail, AKA mocktail!
