15. Cherry And Mango Mojito

While you might expect a mango drink to be bright yellow at the very least (look at some of the drinks on this list), this one couldn’t be further from that color.

While clear at the top, the drink changes to a deep burgundy color. This is because it includes 3 main ingredients: cherries, mango rum, and club soda.
