MOJITO MADNESS 101

This is your step by step guide to making the best goddam mojitos ever…
Why?
Well, because, um, they’re awesome.
AND I figured it’s a great way to fill in some time.
AND they’re really easy to make.
AND, did I mention they’re awesome??

At first I thought I’d do a little video thingo - but then I remembered that there’s no way in hell I’m standing in front of a camera and talking… nope, not gonna happen.
So, I put my girls to work, and did what I do best…
YOU’RE WELCOME!!

PS - you have to scroll all the way through for the whole recipe… #scrollbait

INGREDIENTS

1 Part Sugar Syrup

Mix 1 part water with 1 part sugar and heat over a low heat till all the sugar has dissolved.
Put aside to cool.
DON’T tip out by mistake - that’s REALLY annoying.

Always make sure you have a ‘Bear’ at hand to oversee the process…
… oh and perfectly manicured nails..
PS making the most of a good day where these two aren’t ‘hating’ on each other… ;)

1.5 parts rum

Pour from a height for full ‘Tom Cruise’ impact..

3 parts soda water

AND MIX

Mix it all together.
Now, the size of your ‘part’ can be anything.. we use quite large ‘parts’ as we’re quite partial to a Mojito and whatever we don’t drink (lol) we put in the freezer for later.

BEST SERVED ON CRUSHED ICE

JUST TO RECAP..

1 Part Sugar Syrup (1 part water & 1 part sugar heated till fully dissolved)
1 Part Lime Juice
1 Part Mint Leaves - muddled
1.5 Part Rum (tbh - you could use Vodka or Gin instead)
3 Parts Soda Water
Mix all together
Serve on Crushed Ice
OR
Freeze immediately and take out when wanted for the best Mojito Slushee/slurpee ever…
Perfect for camping.
Pre-make and freeze before departure and have on the first night once you’re all set up.
First night is always cocktail night - that’s a rule of camping right?

Anyhooo - there it is.
Enjoy.
You’re welcome.
