Modern Mojito Recipe Card

Goal: Create a visually stunning modern recipe card for Mojito, presented as a luxurious tropical social-media recipe poster.

Canvas: Vertical 2:3 portrait layout, bright white background with soft beach-and-ocean blur behind the hero drink, airy margins, watercolor lime-green splashes around the edges, subtle mint leaf textures, gold ornamental line accents, and a fresh upscale cocktail-bar aesthetic.

Layout: Top-left title area with a tiny gold cocktail icon, the small uppercase label “CUBAN SUMMER DRINK,” a huge flowing dark-green script title “Mojito,” then the tagline “cool • citrusy • refreshing.” Under it add a short description: “A classic Cuban cocktail with crisp mint, zesty lime, and a splash of sunshine.” Add a handwritten line: “Sip. Relax. Repeat.” On the right side place a tall crystal highball glass filled with crushed ice, lime wedges, mint leaves, bubbles, and condensation, garnished with a lime wheel and mint sprig; include tropical palm shadows and limes/mint on the table.

Ingredients section: Create one elegant bordered card labeled “INGREDIENTS” with exactly 6 ingredient rows, each with a small watercolor-style icon and text: 1) “1 Lime” with subtext “cut into wedges,” 2) “10–12 Mint Leaves” with subtext “fresh & fragrant,” 3) “Soda Water” with subtext “to top up,” 4) “2 tsp Sugar” with subtext “adjust to taste,” 5) “60 ml White Rum” with subtext “(2 oz),” 6) “Crushed Ice” with subtext “as much as you love.”

Tip card: To the right of the ingredients, add one smaller pale-green bordered card with mint illustration and exactly 2 text blocks: top label “TIP” with the note “Lightly crush mint — don’t over-muddle,” and bottom label “PERFECT BALANCE” with “1 Lime : 2 tsp Sugar” plus handwritten text “sweet, citrusy, just right!”

How-to section: Along the lower half, add the heading “HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT MOJITO” and exactly 5 numbered illustrated steps connected by small gold arrows: 1) muddling mint, sugar, and lime in a glass with a wooden muddler, caption “Muddle mint leaves with sugar and lime. Gently press to release the flavors.” 2) filling a glass with crushed ice, caption “Fill glass with crushed ice. Crushed ice = maximum chill.” 3) pouring white rum and soda water into the glass, caption “Pour white rum and soda water. Add rum, then top up with soda water.” 4) stirring with a bar spoon, caption “Stir gently for balanced flavor. Mix lightly to keep it refreshing.” 5) finished mojito with mint sprig and lime wheel, caption “Garnish with mint sprig and lime wheel. The final touch of summer.”

Footer: Add small uppercase text “REFRESHING • VIBRANT • TIMELESS” and handwritten gold script “Made for sunny days and good vibes!” with a small heart doodle. Decorate the corners with watercolor lime slices, mint sprigs, ice cubes, bubbles, and splashes.

Visual style: Minimal yet artistic, polished editorial recipe-card design, watercolor botanical accents mixed with realistic cocktail photography, fresh lime green, mint green, white, pale aqua, and muted gold. Use elegant serif/sans-serif typography paired with large hand-lettered script for the title.

Constraints: Keep all text legible, maintain the exact counts of 6 ingredient rows, 2 tip-card text blocks, and 5 numbered preparation steps. No people, no watermark, no extra recipe steps, no clutter.
