Energy Blend Mate Mojito (with Mocktail Option)
A herbaceous twist on the mojito built on cold-brewed energy blend, white rum, lime, and mint — plus a zero-proof version that keeps the energizing lift intact.
The energy blend's mint-and-mate character makes it a natural fit for a mojito. Cold-brewed and shaken with white rum, lime, and fresh mint, it adds a green, herbaceous depth and a touch of natural caffeine that lifts the classic cocktail into something more invigorating.
Start with a strong, chilled cold brew of the blend so the yerba mate and guayusa flavors come through against the rum. Muddle plenty of fresh mint with lime and a little sugar to build that signature mojito brightness, then top with the infused tea.
Keep the rum measure modest — the blend brings its own bold personality, and a single pour lets the herbal notes shine. A long mint sprig and a lime wheel finish it like a proper mojito.
For a zero-proof mocktail, skip the rum entirely and top the muddled lime and mint with the cold-brewed energy blend and a splash of soda. You keep the refreshing, lightly caffeinated lift — making this the rare mocktail that actually energizes — perfect for a daytime gathering or a designated-driver pour.
