Altos Tequila Mojito: The Best Version

The mojito is a refreshing and delicious drink that combines the flavour of fresh mint with the sweetness of lime and sugar. Traditionally made with rum, this time we’ll prepare it with tequila to add a spicier and more original twist.

To achieve this, you can use either reposado tequila or white tequila, depending on the flavour profile you desire for your mojito.

Ingredients for Making the Tequila Mojito

There are two variations for preparing it:

Reposado Tequila Mojito: the Gold Mojito

When preparing it with Reposado Tequila:

• 1.5 oz Reposado Tequila
• 1 oz Soda
• 1.5 oz lime juice
• 6 mint leaves
• 1 oz Agave Syrup
• 1 slice of lemon or lime
• Chopped ice

White Tequila Mojito: the Silver Mojito

Alternatively, if you prefer it with White Tequila, we suggest adding more Agave Syrup and less lime juice:

• 1.5 oz White Tequila
• 1 oz Soda
• 1 oz lime juice
• 4 mint leaves
• 1.5 oz Agave Syrup
• 1 slice of lemon or lime
• Chopped ice

How to Make Mojitos with Tequila

1. Add the agave syrup, lime juice, and mint to a bowl, then gently muddle the ingredients together.
2. Pour the mixture into a glass and add crushed ice.
3. Add the tequila and soda.
4. Garnish with a slice of lemon or lime.
