I followed this recipe to a the letter except for the agave syrup. I added simple syrup instead. Very tasty. It was a big hit at my house party!

Delicious! I followed the recipe exactly-great balance of flavors

We were celebrating my daughter’s graduation from grad school, I made several pitchers as per this recipe and several pitchers N/A. These Mojitos were one of the highlights of the party! Thanks Sunny!

Love this recipe! My husband does not usually like what he calls “girly” drinks, which is anything with a little sweetness, but even he agreed this is soooooooooo good. I can’t wait to make these at our next party!

So so so good! One of the best summer drinks I’ve come across. So refreshing…they are even delicious to look at! I’m totally hooked!

I leave the watermelon pulp in. Delicious.

I have some mint growing in my garden so I can’t wait to make this recipe. Is it hard to strain the watermelon after its pureed? I will definitely find out this weekend. I made Gina Neely’s Brown Sugar Mojito recipe for Father’s Day. That was a winner too!!!!

Can’t seem to find just plain old mint leaves!
Anybody try this with fresh spearmint instead?
I’ll just sit here and sip my rum on the rocks until I hear back from
somebody or until I pass out. It’s a beautiful day to drink rum!
Or anything else, for that matter!
Happy Summer, everybody!

I’ve tried this three ways- With the rum, without the rum, and blend with ice and no rum. I loved it all ways. My four year old niece made it with me when i blended it with ice and she loved it too. I’ll be trying it next time blended with rum!
