first mojito of the summer

It is offically summer for me, now that I made the first mojito of the season. A little too much lime juice, but not bad. Gotta love the mint in the backyard.

Now for a cigar...

Hey Jealousy!

Great drink. These are the only 'mixed' drink I enjoy!

Re: first mojito of the summer

Love me some mojitos!

I believe that the mojito is every bartender's least favorite drink to prepare - sticky, messy, lots of grinding and effort goes into making them.

I like to have one on special occasions when I'm out.

What cigar did you choose to go with your mojito?

The rain came so I stayed indoors. Probably would have had a tatuaje red though.

Re: first mojito of the summer

Not just any mint will do. It has to be spearmint.



My "mojito mint" is ready to harvest as well. Thanks for reminding me

Drink up!

Re: first mojito of the summer

I need to get some mint in my container garden!

Right now I 'cheat'... I use the mojito mix and add rum and club soda. Not like the real deal - but still refreshing and delicious!

Re: first mojito of the summer

Try substituting ginger beer for the club soda sometime.

Yum
