Popular Green Cocktails

Green cocktails are a fun and refreshing way to add a touch of colour and flavour to your next party or gathering. These drinks are typically made with a variety of green ingredients, such as herbs, fruits, and vegetables, that give them their unique hue and taste.

One popular green cocktail is the mojito. This classic Cuban drink is made with white rum, lime juice, sugar, mint, and soda water. The mint gives the mojito its green colour and adds a refreshing, minty flavour. To make a mojito, muddle the mint leaves in the bottom of a glass, add the rum, lime juice, and sugar, and top with soda water.

Another popular green cocktail is the Margarita. The traditional Margarita is made with tequila, lime juice and orange liqueur, but can also be made with green ingredients such as cucumber, jalapeño, or avocado. These ingredients add a unique twist to the classic drink and can also be used to give it a green colour.

For a non-alcoholic option, consider a green smoothie or juice cocktail. These can be made with a variety of green fruits and vegetables, such as spinach, kale, avocado, and green apples. They are a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional cocktails and can be enjoyed by all ages.
