Mojitos
A summery drink, it's basically mint limeade. For adults.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 lime half cut into wedges, and the other half squeezed into the drink.
- 5 mint leaves
- a sprig of mint for garnish I would say optional, but I love mint so it's a must for me
- 1 shot 1.5 oz/44 mL of white rum (we used Bacardi)
- club soda we filled the rest of the glass with club soda, so say 1 part rum, 5 parts club soda
- 1-2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to taste
- 4-6 ice cubes fill the glass
Instructions
- Pour 1 shot of rum into the glass.
- Add the mint leaves, lime wedges and juice, and ice, then muddle them together to kind of crush the flavour/juice into the rum. Using a shaker would also achieve this effect I think. but then the mint leaves would be floaty, which could be annoying.
- Add club soda and sugar, then stir.
- Bottoms up!
