Classic Mojito

For those dreaming and the lucky few who are at the beach, we’ve got the perfect classic rum drink for you.

Ingredients

Serves One

7 Mint Leaves

2 oz of White Rum

1/2 oz of Lime Juice

1/2 oz of Simple Syrup (or 2 teaspoons of Sugar)

1/2 ox of Soda Water

Spring of Mint for Garnish

How To Mix

Place the mint leaves if your hand and slap them with the other. This will help to express the oils from the mint, making it extra fragrant. Now add the mint leaves and white rum to a collins glass. Lightly muddle the mint leaves.

Pour in the lime juice and simple syrup/sugar in the glass, and add crushed ice. Use a bar spoon to mix all the ingredients. After mixing, top off with some soda water, and garnish with a spring of mint.

Pro Tips:

Mint leaves are delicate, so please be careful while muddling. This is a gentle process. If you over muddle, the mint leaves will become bitter and lose their delicious flavor.
