Sticking with the ‘points south’ theme, I whipped up some Mojitos. They seem to be the drink of the moment again. I am not much of a Rum drinker, but these are a good excuse to start. Begin by muddling: smashing mint, sugar and lime in a glass. After destroying one of my nicer glasses, I went with a different approach. I made a simple syrup infused with the mint, added lime, rum and soda.
