Me: "Is it ok if I post your mojito recipe on my blog?"
Hubby: "Sure."
90 seconds pass . . .
Hubby: "Does that mean you want one tonight?"
Me: "Do you feel like one?"
Hubby: "I'll go pick some mint."
Hubby's Mojitos
Tear 15 or so mint leaves into a cocktail shaker.
Add 2 oz. simple syrup.
Cut 1 lime into 1/8's - squeeze juice into shaker and then toss in lime wedges. Muddle together.
Pour 4 oz. rum into shaker; fill 1/2 full with ice and shake vigorously until shaker is very cold.
Divide into two glasses; top off with Sprite.
Add float of 1/4 oz. dark rum to each glass.
Makes two servings.
Summer in a glass. Enjoy!
How did you know I had all kinds of mint in my garden and needed something fun to do with it? Sounds fabulous!
ReplyDeleteOh how you tempt this pregnant lady! I love mojitos, but we always use a mix, which doesn't make sense because we always have fresh mint growing! Will have to make some next summer for sure! Looks delish!
ReplyDelete#1 Love the conversation.
ReplyDelete#2 It's official - I've got to grow mint in my garden. :)
Great conversation :)
ReplyDeleteAlso sounds like you had a good evening!
I can't tell you how many times I've heard similar conversations over the years. As they say here in Minnesota, "Oh for cute!"
