There are some very fancy cocktails that you can get in a club or cocktail bar which are usually full of at least two or three different cocktail mixes, liquors and hard spirits. The Mojito which is pronounces nothing like it looks like on paper is one of the more tropical drinks that you can get to quench your thirst.
Once known as the Cuban highball the mojito is a very refreshing type of cocktail that will leave with a thirst for more. Drinking the mojito on the beach is one of the cliché’s that many films would have you believe that South American people do all day. This is only a part truth because they also drink a few other cocktails to go with them. The Mojito is a Spanish name for a drink that was a Cuban drink to begin with.
The original drink is made from white rum, sugar or sugar cane juices, soda water and lime plus with a mint flavor. Crushed or cubed ice is also a good idea to keep the fresh flavor however watering down the mojito to much will lose the charm of the drink. Just like the picture would suggest the mojito is one of the clear cocktails with a lime and spearmint taste to give it a powerful punch.
The ladies love the drink and there is always a wild party when these start to flow during the night. But it is not only the ladies that love to have a mojito, the men also find it very refreshing and is a great drink for a hot day out fishing where you can cool off your taste buds with refreshing burst of flavor.
There have been many movies, TV series, feature shows, leisure TV programs and all other manor of advertising for the mojito. This popular drink was said to be just a fading fashion however its long term success is the perfect example of how a cocktail that is only marketed by its own good taste can stay popular over four or five decades.
To start of your mojito you need to add the lime juice to the sugar which will turn it into fine slurry of pure sugar and then add the mint leave for taste. Add some ice cubes and poor the white rum over the top with the idea that you may leave the ice cubes in or take them out after a few moments. That quick snap freeze is often enough to chill your drink and make it that much more refreshing on a cold day.
