It’s getting to be that time of year again: long evenings on the patio with a tableful of tapas and a mittfull of mojitos. Here's our favorite recipe. Feel free to tweak it... just don’t be tempted to leave out the rum!
Foodisima’s Mojitoville Mojitos
2.5 ounces rum
8 - 12 sprigs fresh mint
3 tablespoons simple syrup or sugar
juice of one half lime
ice
sparkling water
Muddle four to six sprigs of fresh mint in a tall glass. (Note: If you don’t actually have a muddler toss a teaspoon of granulated sugar onto the mint in the glass. The sugar acts as an abrasive, allowing you to mash things up pretty easily with a spoon.
Add rum, simple syrup and lime juice. Stir. Add ice, fill with fizzy water, garnish with the balance of the mint, grab your book, a shady tree and enjoy.
