THE REAL MOJITO



The Real Mojito image

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.

Time 10m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 6

10 fresh mint leaves
½ lime, cut into 4 wedges
2 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste
1 cup ice cubes
1 ½ fluid ounces white rum
½ cup club soda

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.

THE PERFECT MOJITO



The Perfect Mojito image

Warning: if you try this recipe, you'll never again trust a bartender to mix your mojito. I was fed up with mediocre bar mojitos, and decided to learn to make a traditional one myself. After much research, I think I've arrived at perfection. Try it for yourself! Notes: Real sugar cane syrup really does make a difference. Any good liquor store will have it. Use mineral water with a high effervescence, like Perrier. You want a bit of texture to your mojito to balance the sweetness.

Provided by Jordan Elwell

Categories     Beverages

Time 7m

Yield 1 drink, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 fluid ounce cane syrup
1 fluid ounce fresh-squeezed lime juice
1 lime peel, whole
2 fluid ounces white rum
2 stalks fresh mint leaves, rinsed
3 fluid ounces sparkling water
1 -2 cup crushed ice

Steps:

  • Muddle the leaves into the cane syrup to release the mint's flavor.
  • Add the lime juice, rum, mineral water, and lime hull. Stir.
  • Shovel in the crushed ice until it towers over the brim.
