When I'm not drinking a rum straight up or mixed with Diet Coke I love a well made Mojito.
MOJITO RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar, (I use Stevia)
• 4 leafy sprigs of fresh mint,
• 3/4 ounce lime juice
• Ice
• Club soda or sparkling water
• 1 lime round, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
1 In a s, tall cocktail glass, add the sugar and 3 sprigs of the mint
2 Muddle the mint with the sugar about 5 to 10 times, until the mint is very fragrant (not so much that the mint completely falls apart).
3 Pour in the rum and the lime juice, and gently stir a few times to help dissolve the sugar. Fill the glass with ice.
4 Fill the glass with club soda nearly to the top. Gently stir in a circular motion to combine, then use your spoon to drag some of the muddled mint higher up into the glass.
6 To garnish, place the lime round in the glass.
Cheers! And remember Thank God the Tiki Bar is Always Open
