London cocktail lovers rejoice! Meet Meetini – an on-the-go cocktail bar bringing smiles to the streets of London. Focusing on being zero waste and carbon neutral, Meetini is always exploring ways to minimise plastic and use locally-sourced/hand-made ingredients.

The Meetini Mojito is classic. There’s no messing around with the recipe or fancy techniques, just a focus on quality, sustainable ingredients.

To make your own Meetini mojito, the bar’s director Daniel Vajsabel said:

“To start, fill around half a glass with ice, then pour over 50ml of white rum, 25ml organic lime juice and 15ml of homemade simple syrup made from organic, raw demerara sugar.

“Then “smack” a sprig of fresh mint to get the oils going and drop it in. Give everything a gentle stir and then top it up with sparkling water.

“Finally, squeeze a wedge of lime around the rim, add it into the glass and enjoy!”

Based at Unit 3 Imperial Works, Fountayne Road, London, N15 4QL from 1pm-8pm every Saturday and Sunday, be sure to grab your minty mixture before the weekend is over!

Offering a range of classic cocktails, all drinks are £7 each.
