When The Bar asked me if I’d like to re-create one of their many awesome cocktail ideas to celebrate Valentine’s Day, I made a beeline for this Non-Alcoholic Mojito.

Nothing says “I love you” more than making the effort to create something special. So if your loved one is driving over or is teetotal, this is the perfect special drink to start the evening.

With a mixture of mint leaves, apple juice, lime juice, elderflower cordial, and soda water, this Non-Alcoholic Mojito is delicious and elegant!

Equipment you’ll need to make a mocktail:

  • A muddler looks a bit like a mini truncheon and is used for gently crushing the mint leaves.
  • A jigger – a very small double-ended measuring beaker.
  • A cocktail spoon – a long spoon needed to stir your cocktail.
  • A powerful blender/ice-crushing attachment for a stick blender is needed for making your own crushed ice.

I hope you give this simple but effective Mojito mocktail a go this Valentine’s Day or for any celebration.

If one of you can have a drink then you could always make an actual Mojito to go alongside and neither of you will feel left out as you’ll both be drinking 2 very sophisticated drinks!

      There’s already apple juice in this and I’m not sure that swapping that for other fruit juice would work, you’d just have to experiment.

    Hi, I would like to know for the apple juice and lime juice we can use any brand or is there a specific brand??

      Hi MJ, there is no specific brand for the apple juice but I would use a clear apple juice, not a cloudy one. The lime juice should be freshly squeezed.

      There isn’t really anything similar, perhaps just leave it out but won’t have that floral kind of kick that the elderflower cordial would give.

    Wow Thanks Camilla! I’ve always loved mojito but my husband could never share it with me because he has to drive. Now we’ve got a solution!

    We are big non alcoholic mojito fans, they always make an appearance at Christmas (and for the eurovision song contest!) but we cheat and use a pre make mix with ginger beer…. SUGAR OVERLOAD! I shall definitely have to give this a go.

      Thank you Patty:-) That’s a good question, which I’m afraid I can’t answer but I do know we have elderflower trees over here and people often make their own cordial. I’ve never seen an elderflower tree though unfortunately:-(

    I happen to have The elderflower cordial that I wasn’t sure what to make with it? (I’m not even sure where it came from?). Now I need to go get the apple juice. This looks so refreshing!

    Good alternative! I’ve never seen it with apple juice but I’m sure it will be delicious! Thanks for sharing

    I love mojitos – it is one of my drinks of choice and your recipe looks and sounds delicious. I can hardly wait for the weather to warm up so I can have my garden full of mint once again.

    I love mojitos and this one sounds great! Where can I find Elderflower cordial? I’ve heard of people making elderflower tinctures for drinks. Is this similar? Thanks for sharing such a refreshing and non-alcoholic recipe!

    This looks and sounds incredible – I bet we wouldn’t even miss the alcohol. I’m driving so much at the moment that I rarely get chance to drink so this sounds perfect. Thanks so much for sharing my mocktail too.

    I love the idea of making something special, even if it doesn’t contain alcohol – I usually just grab a glass of water, but it’s nice to try something different every now and then 🙂 This looks so yummy!
