THE REAL MOJITO

This is an authentic recipe for mojito. I sized the recipe for one serving, but you can adjust it accordingly and make a pitcher full. It's a very refreshing drink for hot summer days. Be careful when drinking it, however. If you make a pitcher you might be tempted to drink the whole thing yourself, and you just might find yourself talking Spanish in no time! Tonic water can be substituted instead of the soda water but the taste is different and somewhat bitter.

Steps:

  • Place mint leaves and 1 lime wedge into a sturdy glass. Use a muddler to crush the mint and lime to release the mint oils and lime juice. Add 2 more lime wedges and the sugar, and muddle again to release the lime juice. Do not strain the mixture. Fill the glass almost to the top with ice. Pour the rum over the ice, and fill the glass with carbonated water. Stir, taste, and add more sugar if desired. Garnish with the remaining lime wedge.

EASY MOJITOS

It's hard to find mojitos at any of the restaurants in the small town I'm stationed in, and when I tried to make my own using club soda, they never seemed to turn out right. Using lemon-lime soda also cuts down on the amount of sugar usually used.

CUBAN MOJITO

This is a traditional mojito recipe, very similar to the drinks I enjoyed in Varadero, Cuba. The muddling and the order of the ingredients helps ensure that all the flavors are well blended. Serve with a straw and a decorative stir stick to keep the different flavors well mixed together. Mint sprigs may be used for a garnish instead of lime wedges. Enjoy!

MOJITO

"You can drink a mojito without really thinking about it, and that's a pretty good recommendation for a summer cocktail," William Hamilton wrote in a 2002 article about the cocktail and its increase in popularity in the United States. The mojito originated in Cuba as a farmers' drink in the late 19th century as Cuba's rum industry modernized, making the mojito as common as beer. Only the rich drank it with ice and soda. This version is straightforward and simply perfect for a hot day. Muddle a handful of fresh mint leaves and some lime juice in the bottom of a glass. Then add rum, sugar, ice and a bit of club soda. Shake and serve.

MOJITA

"The mojito (mo-hee-toe) was concocted in the 17th century by Sir Francis Drake. While crusading around the Caribbean when his stock of whiskey ran dry (which he always drank with mint and a little sugar water), Sir Francis substituted rum for his whiskey and the mojito was born." Officially, however, Cuba claims to have invented the mojito in the teen years of the 20th century. It was one of Ernest Hemingway's favorite libations when he visited La Bodeguita in Havana. This recipe is from "The Florida Keys Cookbook"

  • TO MAKE SIMPLE SYRUP:.
  • In a small saucepan, combine 2 parts sugar to 1 part water.

  • For a fruity twist to your mojito, use flavored rum, such as mango, banana, or pineapple.
  • NOTE: Muddle means to simply bruise or gently pound the limes and mint leaves to release their juices and essence. You can buy a muddler, which looks like a tiny baseball bat or billy club, at any good restaurant store.

2 ounces white rum
club soda
