Mojito | How to Drink

On this episode of How to Drink, I’m taking a look at the rum staple, the Mojito. The Mojito is of course the famed national drink of Cuba and came to prominence there, typically made with Barcardi Rum. It's is a summer favorite, and it’s simple enough to make. These drinks are light, refreshing, delicious, and frankly dangerous because they will sneak up on you. Hope you enjoy, cheers!

It's rumored to have been on of Hemingway's favorite drinks, though he prefered the Mojito as served at La Bodeguita del Medio as opposed to La Floriditia, the bar more closely associated with him. On the wall at La Bodequita Hemingway left this bit of graffiti: "My mojito in La Bodeguita, My daiquiri in El Floridita". The Mojito is a summer favorite, and it's simple enough to make. These drinks are light, refreshing, and delicious, careful now.
