Cuban mojito
Prep: 5 min Servings: 1by Easy Cook - Laka kuharica509 recipes>The classic Cuban Mojito has a minty, slightly tart tang with a little punch from the rum. Ingredients
- ½ fresh lime
- 1 tsp sugar
- 12 fresh, small mint leaves
- 50 ml white rum
- Crushed or/and cubed ice
- Dash of sparkling water
- Sprig of fresh mint and lime wedge, to garnish
Directions
1.Cut a round slice of lime, 1 cm thick and slice it into 4 equal parts. Put the four lime wedges into a glass, then add the sugar and muddle (squish everything together) to release the lime juice and aroma. Do it gently because hard squishing may release the bitterness from the white part of the lime.2.Put the mint leaves on one hand and clap in order to lightly bruise the leaves to releases the aroma. Rub the mint leaves around the rim of the glass and drop them in. Use a muddler, bar spoon (or even a rolling pin) to gently push the mint down into the lime juice.Useful Links
