Mojitos
A delicious recipe for this popular, classic cocktail!
Servings: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh mint leaves, stems trimmed and discarded
- 1 cup granulated superfine sugar
- 2 cups lime juice (see notes below)
- 2 cups light rum
- 2 cups club soda
Instructions
- In the bottom of a large pitcher, using a wooden spoon- crush the mint leaves, sugar and lime juice together. Stir in the rum and club soda.
- Serve immediately in individual glasses over crushed ice.
Notes
- If you're not in the mood to squeeze a zillion limes to create two cups, try using Nellie and Joe's Famous Key West Lime Juice, which is available in most major supermarkets. Or you can at least use part Nellie & Joe's and part freshly squeezed.
