What does a mojito taste like?
A mojito is made with fresh mint, fresh lime juice, sugar and rum. To make it a tall drink, soda and ice are added to it.
The flavors of the fresh mint, tart lime and rum should all come through but mint should be the main flavor of a mojito.
How did the mojito cocktail become popular?
Born in the city of Havana on the island of Cuba, the Mojito became internationally popular when the renowned writer Ernest Hemingway took a liking to the drink while visiting a local Cuban bar.
He then began drinking the cocktail when he returned to Key West in the states and its popularity took off!
So relax, kick up your feet and enjoy the company of family and friends while you sip on a Pineapple Mojito and give thanks that the Mojito went international!
