Ingredients
For the Mojito
- 1 Lime juiced
- 1/2 cup Mint Leaves fresh
- 4 tbsp Simple Syrup or to taste, recipe below
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt or to taste
- 1 cup Ice Cubes
- 1 cup Sparkling Water chilled
Instructions

- Cut two limes in half. Dip the cut sides into granulated sugar.
- Place the sugared lime halves, cut-side down, on a non-stick skillet over low heat.

Make the Mojito
- Squeeze the juice from one lime into two glasses.
- Add half a cup of fresh mint leaves to each glass.
- Pour 2 tablespoons of simple syrup into each glass.
- Add a pinch of sea salt to each glass.
- Gently muddle the mint, lime juice, and simple syrup.
- Fill each glass with ice.
- Carefully top each glass with chilled sparkling water, avoiding stirring to maintain the visual layers.
- Garnish with the cooled caramelized lime halves and extra mint sprigs (optional).
- Enjoy immediately!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Salted Caramel Lime Mojito:
- For a deeper caramel flavor, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar when caramelizing the limes.
- Adjust the amount of simple syrup and salt to your liking. Some prefer a sweeter, others a more tart mojito.
- Use high-quality sparkling water for a crisper, more refreshing taste.
- Muddle gently to avoid bruising the mint leaves, which can release a bitter flavor. A few gentle presses is all you need.
