Friday’s Drink - MOJITO!

mojito.jpg Mojito is a Cuban drink that has become very popular in the US. Once you have your first Mojito you realize why. The word mojito comes from the Spanish word mojo which is a sauce that contains lime in it.

A Mojito is extremely easy to prepare. I do not have exact measurements so I will just tell you how I make it

1 to 1 1/2 ounces of Rum

Club Soda

3 Mint Leaves

3 Tbsp Sugar

3 Tbsp Fresh Lime Juice

I n a tall thin glass, crush part of the mint with a fork to coat the inside. Make sure you coat the inside real well so that the mint flavor will stick to the glass. Add the sugar and lime juice and stir thoroughly. Top with ice. Add rum and mix. Top off with *chilled* club soda. Add a lime slice and the remaining mint, and serve
