To Serve
Instructions
Step 1
In a blender, combine 250 grams of raspberries and 250 grams of watermelon with 20 fresh mint leaves. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Make sure all ingredients are fully incorporated for the best flavor.
Once blended, pour the mixture into ice cube trays or small silicone molds. Fill them evenly to create refreshing cubes.
Place the trays in the freezer and allow the mixture to freeze completely, which should take about 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Step 2
Once the raspberry watermelon cubes are fully frozen, remove them from the trays. Fill a stylish glass with several of these colorful ice cubes.
Pour over your favorite lemon-lime soda, such as Sprite, to give the drink a refreshing fizzy lift. The soda will mix beautifully with the infused flavors of the raspberry and watermelon.
Stir gently and enjoy this deliciously fresh beverage on a hot summer day!

Faq
- What if I don’t have a blender?
If you lack a blender, consider using a muddler to mash the raspberries and mint leaves by hand. You can then strain the mixture to remove any seeds.
- Can I use frozen raspberries for this recipe?
Absolutely! Just remember to let them thaw a bit before blending for easier mixing.
- How can I make it less sweet?
Feel free to adjust the amount of Sprite or use sparkling water instead to reduce sweetness while keeping the minty flavor intact!
- Can I add alcohol to this mojito recipe?
For a fun adult twist, try adding a splash of white rum to each glass to elevate the flavor. Just adjust the Sprite accordingly.
- What can I do with leftovers?
If you have extra puree, store it in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days or refreeze it to enjoy again later!
- How long does the raspberry and watermelon mixture last in the freezer?
Typically, it can last for about 2-3 months. Just make sure it’s well sealed to avoid freezer burn.
