@SnokenKeekaGuard I was looking for an AI generated answer by the bot that I tagged. But thanks!

Is Kermit supposed to be the alcoholic or the person on the hotline? The face could work for either.

My favorite mojito recipe:

  • 2 Oz (60 ml) white rum

  • 1/2 Oz (15 ml) rich demerara syrup (2:1 sugar to water ratio)

  • 1 lime, quartered

  • a goodly amount of fresh mint, ~10-12 leaves

  • a little bit of sugar

  • ~2 Oz (60 ml) soda water

Build:

Put a little sugar in your glass, chuck the lime and mint in, muddle.

After you're done muddling, fill your glass with ice

Add a splash of soda water (not the whole 2 Oz), rum and syrup, stir until chilled

Too the glass up with soda water, stir again to incorporate the soda

Garnish with a fresh mint sprig

Notes: I really like Planteray 3 star or flor de cana 4 for this recipe. Planteray has an earthier flavor while the flor de cana has a more fruity/tropical vibe. If you don't have access to demerara sugar, you can use light brown or raw sugar for a substitute.

This is the way. Personally, though, I keep Probitas around for it. I did really like Plantation 3 Star too, but the Probitas fits in my bar box 😁

Important note about muddling: you're just looking to get the mint to release the oils, but not the chlorophyll. Dont beat the hell out of your mint, just press it against the sugar a couple times.

If you press the mint too much, it will give you a bitter herbal flavor that is not desirable.

Yes, however, do beat the absolute piss out of the limes. The granulated sugar is there to act as an abrasive as well as draw the oils out of the lime rind

Sounds tasty, I'll give it a try

I’m not going through the next 4 years sober, if I can help it.
