Tips For Serving Christmas Mojitos

  • Use highball glasses. Mojitos are traditionally served in tall highball glasses. For a holiday gathering, choose festive glassware to complement the theme.
  • Choose reusable glass straws. Mojitos are often enjoyed with a straw; reusable glass straws are an attractive, eco-friendly option.
  • Use magnetic glass markers. At a party, markers help guests keep track of their drinks—magnetic markers work well with highball glasses.
