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.

- Add 1 cup of fresh, rinsed mint and 2 ounces homemade simple syrup to your shaker (or a tall glass with a lid like a mason jar) and muddle gently until fragrant and the juices from the mint leaves have been released. I recommend adding in the stems too for extra minty flavor!
- Add in the rum, lime juice, and ice. Screw on lid and shake until fully incorporated. The longer you shake, the more minty your mojito will be.
- Strain rum mixture into glasses and top with sparkling lime water and a sprinkle of cayenne, if desired. Using a spoon, carefully stir to combine.

- Watermelon Salad with Mint and Lime. Chef Matt Neal calls this supremely simple fruit salad the ultimate refresher on a hot day. For a grown-up version, he adds splashes of rum.
- Masala Grilled Vegetables with Spicy Mint Chutney. Grilled summer produce meets a chile-spiked herb dressing in this recipe. Using a blender or food processor to prepare the sauce safeguards the colors by instantly cutting and coating the herbs with oil, locking in the green.
- Coconut Mojito. Homemade coconut-mint syrup lends cool, quenching freshness to this lime-kissed, delightfully effervescent mojito. Blanching and shocking the mint leaves before infusing them into the syrup preserves their bright color.
- Mint Pesto. Toss this mint pesto with pasta or mix it with soft, fresh goat cheese and spread it on crostini. Brush on lamb chops (a classic pairing!) , chicken, fish, pork, seafood, or vegetables after grilling, or serve alongside burgers, sausages, or grilled bread.
- Vermicelli with Chicken Skewers and Nuoc Cham. In this Vietnamese-style recipe, individual piles of cucumber, fresh herbs, and grilled chicken are arranged on a platter of vermicelli and bean sprouts; tangy nuoc cham sauce is poured over it all.
- Spicy Brussels Sprouts with Mint. The key to this dish from chef David Chang is to almost burn the brussels sprouts; the charred flavor is irresistible.
- Fresh Mint Stracciatella Semifreddo. Fistfuls of fresh mint are steeped in the custard base of this semifreddo; a slow simmer releases the herb's oils into the base without leeching any color.
- Smashed Fava Beans on Toast with Pecorino and Mint. "Fava beans are one of spring's most coveted ingredients, and my favorite way of preparing them is to smash them with mint and pecorino into a chunky spread for topping toast," says cookbook author Andrea Slonecker.
- Thin Spaghetti with Tomatoes, Kalamata Olives, Feta, and Mint. On a weeknight when speed is key, whip up this one-pot pasta. Whole cherry tomatoes, briny olives, salty feta cheese, and fresh mint and oregano make for a satisfying Greek-inspired summer meal with very little effort.
- Spring Peas with Mint. Make the most of spring vegetables with this crisp, cool no-cook pea and mint salad. Pairing suggestion: Vinegary dishes and wine can be a terrible combination, but the sharp chopped red onion chef Mark Ladner tosses with these tangy peas makes the recipe delicious with a lightly tannic red.
