Homemade mojito ice cream: Low calorie, great taste
And you've probably tried it since then. Maybe on a hot summer day on a terrace or somewhere on a beach. But even in lower temperatures, you can still enjoy mojito. Just differently. Remember mojito as you ponder the next dessert. There gingerbread, here cinnamon rolls. You can satisfy your taste buds in other ways. Jam tarts, bear paws, and coconut balls alone have over 500 calories. Widely-available mojito ice creams have up to 100 calories per 100 ml. You can also make ice cream at home. Try a refreshing low-calorie recipe for mojito sorbet.
Mix water, sugar, and mint in a pan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then bring it to boil. Reduce temperature and cook for 4 more minutes. Take out the mint leaves and let the mixture cool. Add lime juice and peel, sparkling water and rum into a bowl and mix well. Pop the mixture into a freezer overnight. Allow the Mojito sorbet to soften a little before serving.
Try a winter version of mojito
By adding a few typical winter ingredients, your favourite summer drink will change completely. These are the ingredients you’ll need to make a special spicy syrup, for which you'll need:
Heat the herbs, sugar and water in a pan. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat and leave mixture to cool. Drain in a glass or other resealable container, and store in a fridge for up to one month.
And the you’re just a step away
What will you need?
Put a rosemary sprig in a cocktail shaker with the herb syrup, and leave to stand for a few minutes. Add rum, lime juice, ice and shake. Strain the cocktail into a glass filled with more ice. Top up with soda water to taste, and garnish with lime and rosemary sprig.
Cheers!
