Low Carb Keto Mojito (3g Net Carbs!)

This keto mojito is one of those classic low carb cocktails that just screams summer with every crisp and delicious sip!

The low carb alcohol in this drink is rum, which is complemented by muddled mint, lime juice, and soda water.

Traditionally, mojitos are topped off with loads of sugar, but to make this worthy of our low carb drinks collection, we’ll use erythritol for an equally delicious concoction.

This low carb recipes the perfect and refreshing drink to enjoy poolside (or dreaming of being poolside) when it’s too warm for everything else!

What I Love About This Keto Mojito Recipe

Crafting a beautiful, refreshing low carb mojito is so easier than you’d think! Here are more reasons to love it:

• Great summer drink. Light, crisp, and oh-so-refreshing.
• No added sugar!!! WAY more gratifying than drinking its sugar-saturated counterpart.
• Easy to make. Seriously, guys, it takes less than 5 minutes…
• Pairs well with ALL the summer thangs… BBQ, seafood, dogs, and burgers.

Recipe Notes

Just a few ingredients, shakes, and muddles, and you’re well on your way to sipping in STYLE! Here’s whacha need to know:

Ingredient Notes

Making keto alcoholic drinks is easy with lime, white rum, club soda and…

Sweetener. Use your preferred of the keto sweeteners for this cocktail. I love erythritol in this recipe because it has 0 calories and a cooling effect that slightly enhances the mint essence to give this keto mojito a delicious, thirst-quenching quality.

Mint. Grab the freshest mint leaves you can find, along with some quality white rum and club soda.

Mixing Notes

Make sure to not over-muddle the mint, this will give your keto mojito a grassy taste that can ruin the flavor of your recipe. Avoiding the muddlers with teeth on them helps.

Other than that, this keto mojito is a SUPER simple drink to make!

Tools To Make

Making this keto mojito only requires a couple of things:

• A muddler, but a wooden rolling pin will work in a pinch.
• A cocktail shaker. If you don’t have access to a cocktail shaker, then a mason jar or small container with a lid will work in its place.

Serving Recommendations

As mentioned before, we like to drink these keto mojitos with all the poolside foods. My favorite is, of course, a platter of keto tortilla chips and salsa or keto guacamole!

They also work marvelously alongside tacos — check out my keto tortillas!

Recipe Variations

It wouldn’t be a mojito without the 5 classic ingredients listed below, but if you’re looking for something a little different, here are some ways to switch things up:

• Add some low carb fruits before you muddle! A handful of strawberries or raspberries would be delicious and refreshing.
• It’s not for me, but a popular variation is to add low carb wine  (white of course) to mojitos. I like to save my wine cocktails for low carb mulled wine.
• Use a different kind of alcohol. Vodka mojitos are all the rage, you could also use tequila for a low carb margarita -ish variation.

Lindsey's Tips

• Lakanto, Swerve, or Erythritol. I stick to Lakanto and Swerve which are a 1:1 swap with traditional sugar. If using a different brand of Erythritol, keep in mind it's 70% as sweet as sugar, so you may need to add more to taste
