Fresh to concentrate.


Personally, I prefer a mojito at martini strength. A nice rum like Flor de Cana 7 year makes for a strong base comingled with tons of FRESH mint and lime.

A six count of rum, ample ice cubes, juice of half a lime, a healthy sprig of "farmer's market-fresh" mint, and a pinch of powdered sugar. Shake this vigorously for two minutes, strain it into a chilled martini glass and top with a splash of soda. Concentrated Cubanismo!
