Mojito

• 3 mint leaves
• 1/2 ounce simple syrup
• 2 ounces white rum
• 3/4 ounce lime juice, freshly squeezed
• Club soda, to top

Garnish: mint sprig
Garnish: lime wheel

1. Lightly muddle the mint with the simple syrup in a shaker.
2. Add the rum, lime juice and ice, and give it a brief shake, then strain into a highball glass over fresh ice. Alternatively, you can use pebble ice instead and gently swizzle it all together.
3. Top with the club soda.
4. Garnish with a mint sprig and lime wheel.

My wife requested a vodka mojito so she got one. I made mine with The Real McCoy white rum

We did end up going to that new cocktail bar last night and had their pineapple (I think meaning Plantation Pineapple Rum) mojito. It was okay but nothing special. We like mine better. But the band was good and set the mood nicely for a cocktail bar.

I’m pretty sure the FDA does not approve of that method.

[Attjack]

Pretty sure that's not the case, buddy. But you do want to store your honey syrup in the fridge because although honey doesn't go bad once you introduce WATER things change.

Having my first Bee's Knees, very good but doesn't look as professional as yours does.

Ranch Water? Don't mind if I do...



There's probably a Mexican Mule in my future too.

Actual conversation:

She: You can't just drink tequila all day.
Me: Challenge Acc...
She: No.

I'm drinking PBR now.
