Allright folks
Tx Bryan dissed my drink of choice, the mojito. I will admit they are a pain to make, but worth it. As the summer ends, these are a great way to end the day on a Saturday afternoon. As Haz put up the famous Hazerita I can do no less.
Quaker's Majic Mojito
(which will kick your ass, so the limit is one if you even think about driving, no BS, lots of rum and it taste like lime aid, do be careful with these puppies or you will drink them like water which leads to very bad things
)
For one (large) drink
Get a martini shaker and a Guiness style pint glass
1/2 cup Bacardi Limon
1 Tb sour mix (equal parts fresh lemon and lime juice)
4 ts simple syrup (for many drinks use 3 and 1/2 cups water brought to a low boil. Slowly stir in an equal amount of sugar till it dissolves. This will keep for days in the fridge once you make it and its easy as pouring piss out of a boot, even an Aggie can do it, or so I've been told
)
1/8 cup soda (Schwepps preferred)
1/4 cup mint leaves minus stems
1/4 lime cut into three thin slices
Put the mint and lime and simple syrup at the bottom of a pint glass.Muddle (crush for us rednecks) with a honey dripper or spoon or whatever Use a stalk of sugar cane if you live in Fl and want to get hard core, but that requires a guyabara (which hides an IWB nicely) and a nice cigar and is not for amateurs. The point is to crush the mint leaves and get some (though not all, eg don't squeeze) the juice from the lime.
Add rum and sour and mix
fill the glass with ice and top with the soda.
Shake with a Martini shaker
Enjoy at your own risk, avoiding cars, guns and women who suddenly look a whole lot more attractive than they did an hour ago. Its a bit of a hassel to prep, but you can make a dozen or two as easily as one and they are darn good.
