Make the mocktail.

Notes
Mojitos are best when enjoyed immediately. The blueberry syrup can be made ahead of time and stored in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to two weeks.
Want to make a blueberry mojito cocktail instead? Added 1 to 2 ounces of white rum when you add the lime juice. You'll need a little bit less sparkling water to fill the glass.
