I remember this one time, during a family vacation to Hawaii, where I had my first taste of a real Mai Tai. The lush greenery, the turquoise waters, and that sweet, tangy drink—it was pure bliss. But as much as I love the taste, sometimes I prefer something without the alcohol, especially during those long summer days or when I'm just trying to stay hydrated. So, I set out to recreate that iconic flavor in a virgin version. This Mai Tai Virgin Mojito is just what you need! I mean, who doesn't need a refreshing, tropical mocktail that takes you straight to a sunny beach?
This isn't just another sugary mocktail; its got layers of flavor! We're talking the tangy lime and fragrant mint of a Mojito, blended with the tropical goodness of pineapple, orange, and a hint of grenadine for that classic Mai Tai vibe. Trust me, this Mai Tai Virgin Mojito is a total winner—easy to make, super refreshing, and perfect for any occasion. I think you'll find it's even better than the real thing! I actually served this at my best freinds wedding, and everyone loved it!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Muddle the Mint and Sugar: In a sturdy cocktail shaker, gently muddle the fresh mint leaves with the sugar. You’re not trying to pulverize the mint, just release its fragrant oils. About 5-6 gentle presses should do the trick. This step is importatnt to extract flavour.
- Add Juices and Puree: Pour in the pineapple juice, orange juice, and grenadine (or pomegranate juice). The combination of these juices creates the classic Mai Tai flavor profile. If using a fruit puree, add it now. A little goes a long way!
- Add Lime Juice: Squeeze in the fresh lime juice. The acidity of the lime juice balances the sweetness of the other ingredients and adds a refreshing zing.
- Shake it Up: Fill the cocktail shaker with ice. Secure the lid tightly and shake well for about 15-20 seconds. This chills the mixture and ensures that all the flavors combine harmoniously. If you dont have a cocktail shaker you can stir it well, but its not gonna be the same.
- Strain and Serve: Fill a highball glass with ice. Strain the mixture into the glass, leaving some room at the top.
- Top with Sparkling Water: Top off the drink with sparkling water or club soda. This adds a bubbly effervescence that enhances the refreshing qualities of the drink. Give it a gentle stir to combine.
- Garnish and Enjoy: Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint, a slice of orange or pineapple, and a maraschino cherry. Get creative and make it your own! Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Virgin Mai Tai Mojito!
📝 Notes
- Adjust sweetness to your liking. Some people prefer a sweeter drink, while others like it more tart.
- If you don’t have fresh mint, a few drops of mint extract can work in a pinch, but the flavor won’t be quite as vibrant.
