The Mojito Report

Published by cincin under Uncategorized Edit This

I love Mojitos.  Nachos and Mojitos may are the reasons that I knew I could never fully conform to the Skinny Bitch guidelines dictated in the book.  I make superb nachos, I may have mentioned before, but I have never made a mojito, despite my intense “research” on the topic.

Here’s an easy Mojito recipe…

  • 2 oz. Rum
  •  Club Soda
  • 2 lime wedges
  • Mint
  • 1 1/2 oz. Sugar Syrup

The directions I read said to “muddle” the lime, mint, and sugar syrup together in the bottom of the glass, then add ice and top with rum.  Yum!

I discovered mojitos 2 summers ago at a graduation party.  Being a big mint fan I was hooked.  As I said, I have  never had the opportunity to make them but I always have some bottles on hand.

So far my favorite Mojito is the original by Parrot Bay.  I have tried many kinds by now and this one is just smoooooth.  I had some mint growing on my back deck this summer and have taken to tearing some up and dropping enough in the Mojito bottle to fill the neck.  Delish!

I’ll keep you posted as I try different Mojitos from different companies and different places.  In the meantime if  you get a chance to make your own, please let me know how it tastes!
