Low-Carb Raspberry & Blackberry Mojito Cocktails

This Mojito is a great addition to my keto cocktails. Make sure you use powdered - not granulated - Erythritol or use any of the sugar substitutes I listed in the ingredients below. I gave these mojitos a summer twist by adding fresh raspberries and blackberries - blueberries will work too.

Is Alcohol Keto?
Avoid drinking alcohol if you want to lose weight. Even if there is no sugar, your body can't store alcohol as fat - it has to metabolise it. This means that your body will utilise alcohol instead of body fat which will slow down weight loss.

Step-by-step

1. Place the raspberries (or blackberries), lime juice, mint and powdered Erythritol in 2 tall glasses. You can keep a few berries for garnish.

   

2. Using a long spoon or a muddler, crush the berries and muddle the mint leaves to extract flavour.

   

3. Pour in white rum ...

   

4. ... add ice and top up with sparkling water (club soda).

   

5. Finally, garnish with more mint leaves, lime wedges and berries.

   Enjoy!
