How to make a cup of Mojido

Let's talk about the material, prepare a cup of Mojito, in addition to ice cubes, cups, you need to prepare: white sugar, rum, lime, soda and sugar. Rum is a top priority. Bacardi's basic white rum is a good choice. It is refreshing and easy to shape. The rum is more flavorful, like Havana Club 3yo. I prefer to take it. Go for it. Of course, the matter itself is a choice of people. On most occasions, as long as it is a bottle of transparent light rum, no one will care about the brand. Mojito's formula for almost every bartender will be different. I will talk about my usual practice. Any increase or decrease is nothing. As long as you don't use Sprite to replace soda, I will forgive you. Of course, you can't lose the mint leaves.

It is also very common to choose some small mint leaves to be inserted at the top as a decoration. However, we are rich in people, and there is no decoration that does not affect drinking. I will not do any demonstration. I want to make a decoration and drumming it. It is simple.

The ice crusher can break the ice cubes - it feels like I didn't say it. But the ice cubes broken out by this ice crusher are nail-sized ice cubes, not the same as smoothies.

                                                                         Inside, you know

The principle of this ice crusher uses these needles to poke ice cubes, a bit like ice cones - but much more efficient than ice cones.

Lemon juice, if you have special needs, you can also cut two lime slices for decoration.

After the first step of juicing, the mint leaves are combed into the cup. Unlike most people, "several mint leaves", I usually have a full cup of mint leaves.

Cool feeling I think is the most important part of Mojito, and some people will use a small amount of mint leaves with mint water, I don't like it very much - since there are fresh, better texture of fresh mint leaves, you need to use sugar water.

Sprinkle some sugar on top of the mint leaves and crush them with a crowbar. But don't be too broken, the purpose of this step is to release the aroma of mint.

hen throw in other materials: 15ml lemon juice, 60ml rum, 15ml sugar water. A small amount of sugar will not melt in the wine during the later production, and the sugar will provide sweetness to the wine. According to the taste to adjust properly, I think that from 10-30ml is feasible. Use a crowbar to properly mix these materials.

The crushed ice should be ready. First add the crushed ice about 3cm from the top of the cup. Use the spoon to go in and out, disturb the wine and crushed ice, and pick the mint leaves.

Open the soda and add it from the top to the cup

This is the case after the completion, then prepare two straws - the reason why Mojito needs two straws is also very simple, because the mint leaves will accidentally block one of them. If you use two straws, it is not easy to block.

This way, a cup of Mojito is finished. A full cup of mojito should have a rum of fruit, a sweet and sour taste and a scent like mints.
