With only a few ingredients you can create a refreshing mojito that tastes just like summer.

Watermelon & Cucumber Mojito Recipe:

Serves 6-8, or makes 1 pitcher.

• 2 juiced limes.
• 1/2 cup mint.
• 1 large bottle sparkling water.
• 8 oz of white rum.
• Cucumber
• Watermelon
• Ice

In your pitcher, squeeze the juice from 2 limes. Muddle 1/2 cup of mint and a cup of cubed watermelon, then add 8 ounces of white rum, sparkling water, and ice. Add cucumber slices, mint sprigs, and watermelon for garnish. 

As a non-alcoholic option, simply exclude the rum! Then for the guests that do want their mojito to be alcoholic, add in 2 ounces of white rum to their individual beverages. Voila! Versatile, refreshing, fruity, and tasty.

To let the pink color of the drink shine, serve your beverage in Solo®’s Clear Plastic Cups. They're a twist on the classic Solo® Squared cups that let you show your drink off! Head to Walmart to pick up all the Solo® Products you need to SOLObrate this summer.
