Oakham Nub News has joined forces with a regular reader to share a 'Cocktail of the Week' feature, and here is Josh with the latest instalment:
Hey guys, nice to be back with this week's cocktail of the week, a Mango Mojito.
The Mojito is a traditional Cuban drink that usually consist of five ingredients: white rum, sugar, lime juice, soda water, and mint. This combination of sweetness, citrus and mint flavours complements the rum, and has made the mojito a popular summer drink.
You will need:
- mint leaves
- 50ml white rum
- a splash of mango syrup or juice
- soda water
- lime
- crushed ice
Method:
- Build in a tall glass
- Add mint leaves with the white rum and 3 lime slices
- Muddle
- Add crushed ice
- Add mango syrup and stir
- top up with soda - as much as you want depending upon the strength of the drink
- Garnish with a mint leaf
Enjoy!
