I love mojitos and sadly they are sometimes hard to come by, as many bars don't like to stock mint leaves. Womp womp. But when I do find a place that has 'em that's what I'm ordering. Yum.
So cool and refreshing, light enough that they're easy to drink, and not too sweet that you have to stop after one.
I borrowed this picture [and recipe] from userealbutter.com so head over there for detailed instructions AND pictures to help you along the way. Depending on how much you like these, you made need to reference this material for rounds 4 and 5.
And even if you decide to bend the rules and not follow a recipe, these are pretty hard to mess up. Just stick to this grocery list and you'll be throwing 'em back in no time.
Grocery list:
White Rum
Limes
Club soda or sparkling water
Simple syrup, sugar, or agave nectar
Fresh mint
Ice
Drink up.

It works very well to muddle the fresh mint leaves (some of them not all) with the sugar and a tiny bit of sweet and sour (if you don't have simple syrup).
