Making minty, limey mojitos will greatly enhance your next outdoor party. Here is our way of making a great mojito:
Add to drink glass the following ingredients: 1/2 lime (cut in
three wedges), 1 handful of fresh mint leaves, 2 tablespoons sugar,
(yes tablespoons, not teaspoons - first try it this way and adjust
the sugar from there if you want). Muddle all this well
with a blunt instrument to bring out the mint and lime flavors
and begin melting the sugar. Add one shot of white rum, and
stir to mix and dissolve sugar. Top glass with ice, and add
club soda or water to fill. Stir gently. Serve. Alternatively,
make a double batch in a martini shaker.
