Mojito

The best thing to come out of my herb garden this summer..

Mojitos!! The most delicious and refreshing decision you can make on a hundred degree day. I have enjoyed nothing more than working on perfecting my mojito skills this melty summer. I suggest you do the same.

Mojitos-
12 fresh spearmint leaves
1/2 lime cut into wedges
2 Tbs simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water heated until sugar dissolves)
1 1/2 ounces white rum
soda water

Muddle together mint and lime. Add simple syrup and rum. Fill glass with ice and top with club soda. Garnish with a lime wedge and enjoy! Repeat as necessary :)

Hope you are finding a fun way to stay cool!
