Hemingway's Mojito Recipe

FYI:

Hemingway's Mojito recipe:

6 fresh mint sprigs
1 oz. lime juice
3/4 oz. simple syrup
2 oz. light rum
Lime wedge

Crush 5 mint sprigs into the bottom of a chilled highball glass. Pour in lime juice, simple syrup, and rum. Fill glass with crushed ice. Garnish with lime wedge and remaining mint sprig. Hemingway would sometimes add a splash of club soda..

 

I'm a fan of a liberal dose of spring water to impart God's gift of life to the drink.. but then again who am I to argue?

 

Indeed. Arguing withi Hemingway over how to make a mojito would be like arguing with Jesus over how to make a Christian.

 

Thank god I had this recipe for the Texas Baylor game. It was needed.

 

The mojitos were good tonight

 

Just a side note: If you have acid reflux, you want to avoid these drinks.

 

You know what they say about good rum?...there's no such thing

 

The most interesting drink in the world.

 

Now, I need the recipe for the ideal Margarita on the rocks
