1. A mojito perhaps? Its my new specialty.

Juice of 2 limes
6 mint leaves more or less
Muddle/mash/bruise the mint in the lime juice.
1 heaping tbsp sugar
1/3 cup rum
Fill glass with ice
Add tonic water to fill glass.
Stir
relax
repeat as necessary

Never used that before ....

On edit - in a mojito.

6. Need some kind of liquid filler. Water doesn't work for me. Soda?

14. I usually use lime seltzer

:thumbsup:

Thanks for the recipe!

16. Gotta get summa dat.

5. Interesting. I've never seen the recipe for a mojito before. It looks

like a recipe for a mint julep, with rum instead of bourbon.

7. too much work

I just pour it in Diet Dr Pepper.... I love it.

[triguy46]

8. A joke, right? Rum and DDP? Really? What's the 'bar' name for that?

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

9. don't know... it is my fav

at the moment...

I doubt it has a name

10. I bet gin in place of rum would work really well in that

sort of like a minty gin and tonic

[triguy46]

12. Yep. In fact, just adding sugar to a g/t could be a shortcut.
