Fast and Easy to make So simple to make a batch of this refreshing low-calorie cocktail in under 15 minutes.
Considered Cuba’s oldest cocktail, the original Mojito may go as far back as Sir Francis Drake in the 1500’s. Though, Drake was unsuccessful finding gold in Havana, he did find a cure for some of his ailing crew members. Sir Drake was worried about the dysentery and scurvy that was ravaging his crew. Consequently, he sent a small party to meet with local South Americans for a remedy. Of course, they found one!
The remedy, however, may date back even further to African slaves that worked in the fields of sugar cane. Slaves created “Aguardiente de cana” (literally “firewater of the sugar cane”) – a simple sugar cane alcohol.
Locals used a mixture of aguarediente de cana, mint leaves, sugar cane and fresh lime juice into a tonic which turned out to be effective for scurvy. Importantly, the citrus was the cure for scurvy, and if the other ingredients had little effect- well they still tasted good!
The Bacardi company popularized Mojitos in the mid 1800s. Additionally, Ernest Hemmingway’s endorsement of the drink in Le Bodeguita del Medio propelled it to become one of the most popular modern cocktails.
Mojito cocktails are already perfect in every way, so what could possibly make them better? They’re made with Fresh strawberries! Strawberries are an excellent accompaniment to a mojito’s sweet, sour, minty flavor.
Besides being summer’s best cocktail, our Strawberry Mojitos are SKINNY. A classic Mojito is heavy on Sugar- and usually over 200 calories- (Way too many calories for the Skinny Bitches we know and love)
Enjoy this refreshing cocktail – Guilt-free. It’s perfect for your next party. Delish
Try this Mojito Cocktail recipe with a twist. You may also love a different Mojito made with freshly muddled mint and Raspberries.
Our favorites include Mount Gay Eclipse, Appleton White rum, and Cruzan light rum.
The Mojito is especially beautiful in a High-ball or tall Collins glass. Additionally, be sure to garnish with lots of fresh mint.
Are you working on losing a few pounds? It’s hard to keep that momentum going with parties. Here are 10 tips to help you keep on track!
1. Pregame with nutritious, high-protein food before the party. Don’t arrive hungry and face down a smorgasbord of sugary choices.
2. Get exercise in before the party. At most parties you sit and stand for hours- your not burning calories on the couch (Well, If you are, you might want to clear the room!)
3. Drink water before, during and after the party! Water helps you feel less hungry, and may also help to dilute any cocktails you enjoy.
4. If you feel like you want to imbibe, try simple, low-sugar cocktails like vodka and soda. With just 133 calories in a 7.5-ounce cocktail, it’s one of the lowest calorie cocktails you can order- Make it a little bougie with lemon, lime, cucumber or mint! In addition, low-calorie hard seltzers or Skinny cocktails can also be good choices. Even better, alternate your cocktails with water. Be aware that alcohol increases appetite, and can affect your ability to make good choices. If you have recently lost weight, or it is especially warm- the alcohol can have a greater effect- Be careful of your alcohol intake, or you may really make some memories(for everyone else!)
5. Bring a low-calorie/high protein appetizer. It will be a stand-out among the other bacon-wrapped, high carb submissions at the party- AND you will be sure there is something on the table you feel good about eating.
6. Use small plates, make good choices, and don’t finish any food you don’t love. (Don’t feel obliged to finish)
7. Get your butt away from the food table! Move around, eat slow, and stop eating early.
8. Focus on relationships, laughter, and activities that get people moving. Or, kick off those shoes and dance like no one is looking!
9. Skip the dessert table, and finish the evening with a small portion of fruit, and/or a nice cup of tea
10. Leave the left-overs. Don’t let your host load you up with high-calorie take-home baggies.
