Chef Kelly’s Ginger Mojito

The Caribbean is one of the best places to enjoy flavorful food, lively music, sunny weather and refreshing drinks. This delicious ginger mojito is a true crowd-pleaser and the perfect way to re-create those island vibes. I hope you sail to the Caribbean soon with your Oceania Cruises family and raise your glasses in celebration!

INGREDIENTS:

{Makes 8 cocktails}

• 8 sprigs mint
• 2 cups simple syrup (see tip)
• 2 cups Silver tequila
• 2 cups lime juice, freshly squeezed
• 1 can ginger ale, cold

DIRECTIONS

Detach the mint leaves and divide them evenly among 8 Collins glasses, about 10 leaves per glass. Using a wooden spoon, muddle the leaves. Add ¼ cup (2 ounces) of simple syrup to each glass and continue to muddle. Fill the glasses with ice. Add ¼ cup of tequila and ¼ cup of lime juice to each glass. Top each drink with a splash of ginger ale.

CHEF TIP | SIMPLE SYRUP

To make simple syrup, combine equal parts water and sugar in a saucepan and heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves.
