Mmm Mojitos.


i love mojitos.

I recently discovered them a few months ago and I physically cannot get enough of them.
They are cool, refreshing and just so yummy.
I have tried a few different ways to make them, and there are a few different ways.
Here is the best way I have found...

Ingredients needed:
2-3 oz of light rum
1 oz of lime juice
2 tsp. of sugar
2-4 mint sprigs
soda water
1 lime

Instructions:
To make a fancy finishing touch:
1. Before putting wet ingredients in highball glass, take the lime and cut it in 4 quartres, use a knife and make a small slice in the middle of the lime. put the lime on the rim of the glass and slide it around the entire rim of the glass.



2. with a small bowl of sugar handy, dip the rim of the glass in the sugar so it has the frosted look.




3. Lightly muddle the mint and sugar with a splash of soda water in a mixing glass until the sugar dissolves and you smell the mint.
4.Squeeze the lime juice into the glass, add rum and shake with ice.
5. In the highball glass garnished with sugar rim, put ice and remaining slices of lime - strain over cracked ice.
6. Top with soda water and garnish with mint sprigs and serve.

Mmmm Mojitos!
