Mojito Recipe

To go along with the mojito glasses in the previous post, I wanted to share with you the recipe of the delicious mojito. It is one of my favorite drinks because of it's freshness and and the perfect balance between mint, lime with a hint of sweetness. I don't like drinks that are too sweet, especially on a hot day when you need something cooling and refreshing. In that case on a sunny day- Mojito is my preferred cocktail of choice.
I happen to grow my own mint in my garden and also enjoy it in other recipes. Mint has many great health benefits besides it's yummy taste.
Here goes the recipe:




Serves: 1

Ingredients:

1 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 tsp sugar
6-7 large mint leaves
1-1/2 oz. white rum
Crushed ice
