Or: Pour a little soda onto the muddled ingredients and ice, swizzle it up gently, top off with soda. This works with other mixed-in-the-glass drinks. That first splash of mixer helps integrate the alcohol part of the concoction into the rest of the mixer. PS: "The box specifically says these are for mojitos only." Be sure to heed that warning. Mojito glasses are highly unstable, serving any other sort of drink in one is a dance with danger.
