Mojito is a refreshing cocktail that has become popular worldwide, especially during summer. It is a perfect combination of lime juice, mint leaves, sugar, white rum and soda water. This Cuban classic can be made without the need of any special tools, just a muddler, a tall glass, and a spoon. Here we will walk you through the steps to make this perfect cocktail at home.

Ingredients:

-10 to 12 fresh mint leaves

-1 lime cut into quarters

-2 tablespoons of sugar

-2 ounces of white rum

-1 cup of ice cubes

-2 ounces of soda water

-1 sprig of mint garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Begin by placing the mint leaves and lime into a tall glass. Using a muddler, gently press down on the lime and mint leaves to release their natural oils.

2. Add 2 tablespoons of sugar to the glass and continue to muddle until the sugar has dissolved.

3. Pour the rum into the glass and mix all ingredients together with a spoon.

4. Add one cup of ice to the glass and stir to combine all the ingredients.

5. Top off your cocktail with the soda water and mix gently to finish the cocktail.

6. Finally, add a sprig of mint as garnish to enhance the overall appearance and aroma.

Tips:

– Use fresh and high-quality ingredients. The lime and mint leaves must be fresh in order to obtain maximum flavours and aromas.

– If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add extra sugar during the muddling process.

– Play with the ratios if you like your mojito stronger, just add more white rum and less soda water.

– Make sure not to over-muddle the mint leaves as it can release a bitter flavour.

– If you don’t have a muddler, you can use the back of a spoon or a rolling pin for similar results.

In conclusion, making a delicious mojito does not require any experience or special equipment. All you need is a few basic ingredients, and you can be easily transported to a tropical paradise. So why not try making one at home today? You might even impress your friends at your next party. Cheers!
