This Keto Mojito is a delightful, tasty, & low-carb drink on the traditional Cuban cocktail for those who are on a keto diet or sugar-free diet. This mojito has the same brilliant taste as the original, and it is made with fresh mint, lime juice, and a keto-friendly sweetener without added sugar. It is made with the combination of sparkling water and rum; sparkling water lends a frothy, fizzy touch, and white rum goes well with the mint and lime. We can easily modify this Keto Mojito recipe according to taste and add more lime, increase the quantity of sweetener, or even turn it into a mocktail by omitting the rum. It is a guilt-free treat that won’t interfere with your ketogenic goals because each serving only contains 1g of net carbs!
