The Mojito originated in Havana, Cuba, in the early 20th century, where it quickly became a staple for beating the tropical heat. Traditionally made with rum, lime, mint, sugar, and soda, the Mojito was popularized in bars like La Bodeguita del Medio—famously visited by Ernest Hemingway. As the world embraced creative non-alcoholic options, the Virgin Mojito became a go-to mocktail, offering all the vibrant flavors of the original, minus the alcohol. Today, it's beloved everywhere from beach resorts to backyard parties.
