The secret to a good mojito is lots of fresh mint. Ingredients:
20 rinsed fresh mint leaves (each about 1 1/2 in. long) |
2 teaspoons superfine sugar |
4 to 5 tablespoons light rum |
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
4 to 6 tablespoons chilled soda water |
1 sprig of fresh mint |
Directions:
1. In an 8- to 10-ounce glass, combine 20 rinsed fresh mint leaves (each about 1 1/2 in. long) and 2 teaspoons superfine sugar. With a wooden spoon, pound mint leaves with sugar to coarsely crush. Add 4 to 5 tablespoons light rum, 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice; mix well. Fill glass with ice cubes and 4 to 6 tablespoons chilled soda water. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint. |
