Notes

For the best flavor, always use fresh lime juice instead of bottled. Feel free to adjust the sugar to taste; some prefer it sweeter while others enjoy a tangier drink. If you're out of pomegranate seeds, cranberries or orange slices make great alternatives for garnish. Store any leftover mojito mix (without the soda) in the fridge for up to 2 days and shake well before using.
