Cutwater Spirits Rum Mojito
5.9% ABV (11.8 proof) | 4 × 12oz slim cans | Real spirit-based RTD | Gluten-free — Cutwater Spirits Rum Mojito is a true mojito in a can: real rum — Cutwater's own Bali Hai White Rum, distilled in-house in San Diego from pure cane sugar in a hybrid pot-and-column still — blended with muddled mint, lime, cane sugar, and soda water. No malt base, no shortcuts: a proper mojito built on real distilled spirits.
Cutwater is one of the few RTD producers that distills every base spirit in-house — a rarity in the canned-cocktail world. This Mojito pours bright and mint-forward with zesty lime and a crisp soda lift, dry and slightly herbal on the finish with a lingering mint-lime echo. At 165 calories and 12g of cane sugar per can, it's a sessionable, honest mojito without the muddler. Awarded 93 points from Tastings.com and Gold from the American Distilling Institute — available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
