Mojito

Do you have a sudden crave? Well, I did last night; a glass of mojito! The problem was I did not have any ice cubes in the fridge. We did not turn on the ice maker. I am not a fan of alcohol but I do love mojito lately as long as it is not so bitter in taste; I need a little sweetness to it.  So just now  I went out and bought some mint leaves and made myself a glass of mojito. Oh, it is so refreshing even though it is very cold outside.

Here is the picture and recipe in case you want to make some !

Recipe

* 1/2 lime cut into 6 wedges
* 1-1/2 tbsp lime juice
* 2 tbsp honey, warmed (I did not use honey because I used fresca and it is already sweet)
* 2 oz. of rum
* 4 oz. club soda (I substituted with fresca for a little of sweetness)
*Pestle or long spoon
* Martini shaker
*Rocks Glass
*Ice

1. Fill a martini shaker with 1 cup of ice. Add lime wedges, lime juice and mint. Muddle lime and mit with the pestle or spoon until well-bruised and fragrant.
2. Combine honey, rum and club soda; stir gently to dissolve honey.
3. Add to muddle mixture and stir until mixture is well-chilled.
4. Strain into rocks glass filled with ice; garnish with mint and lime if desired.
