Mojitos For A Hot Day!


Like all sublime food, the ingredients are the secret to making a drink rock.

For a change, we didn't have wine or whisky at dinner. The weather was all the excuse we needed to grab a cool summer drink. We made mojitos. I like mojitos very much. But I rarely get a good one outside. It'd either be too filled with too much sugar or crap rum.

We broke out the 12 y.o Angostura 1824. We found the apple mint leaves that lends cocktails that distinct taste that's different from the usual mint leaves. There was bottled lime juice from the supermarket because we were too lazy to squeeze fresh limes by hand.

As the man bustled about in the kitchen, he also hopped out to put the mojitos together. I vaguely recall that before dinner, we had already drunk 5 or 6 mojitos each. Hiccc!
