Watermelon Mojito: Refreshing and Sparkling

A recipe by Alix GlutenFree

Wow! Here’s my new summer obsession: the watermelon mojito, reinvented with a local twist thanks to Indigo Soda’s CO₂ cylinders and sparkling water machine. A super refreshing cocktail (or mocktail!) that’s perfect for hot days.

I’m a huge fan of homemade mojitos, and this fruity version—made with watermelon, fresh mint, and lime—combined with our Quebec-made bubbles is simply irresistible.

Whether you go for the alcoholic or alcohol-free version, this fizzy homemade drink is sure to impress your guests… or simply treat yourself solo!

Ingredients:

  • Half a lime, cut into wedges
  • 5 fresh mint leaves
  • 4 watermelon balls or cubes
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) cane sugar
  • 1 oz (30 ml) dark rum (omit for the mocktail version)
  • Ice
  • 1 cup (250 ml) Indigo Soda sparkling water

Step:

In a glass, muddle the lime, mint, watermelon, cane sugar, and rum (if desired). Add ice and your Indigo Soda bubbles. Enjoy!
