Starfruit Mojito Twist

A refreshing mojito-inspired cocktail featuring starfruit (carambola) as the star ingredient. This tropical twist combines the tangy sweetness of starfruit with classic mojito flavors for a unique, vibrant drink.

Steps

1. Rinse the starfruit and slice thinly, set aside a few slices for garnish. 2. In a sturdy glass, muddle the starfruit slices, mint leaves, sugar, and lime wedges together until the starfruit releases its juice and the sugar dissolves. 3. Fill the glass halfway with ice cubes. 4. Pour the white rum over the ice. 5. Top up with soda water and gently stir to combine all flavors. 6. Garnish with the reserved starfruit slices and a sprig of mint. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical mojito twist.
