mango mojitos
~
My urban gardening efforts have really paid off. This weekend I found myself with a plethora of mint and a lot of free time. Obviously that meant my husband had to work overtime perfecting one of my all time favorite cocktails... the mango mojito. Here's what we came up with.
MANGO MOJITO
Place a generous portion of mint (approximately 12 leaves+stems) at the bottom of a rock glass or tumbler.
Put in 2 quartered lime wedges with a sizable slice of mango.
Muddle.
Add 1 ½ oz rum.
A splash of simple syrup.
Stir.
Add 4 ice cubes and top off with sparking water.
Serve.
