STRAWBERRY MOJITOS

Here’s an easy cocktail recipe that is soooo good:  Strawberry Mojitos

Yield: 2 

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 teaspoon granulated white sugar
• 4 lime wedges
• 8 fresh mint leaves
• 1/2 cup chopped strawberries
• ice
• 4 ounces white rum
• one bottle of Jarritos strawberry soda (or club soda)
• Additional strawberries and mint, for garnish (if desired)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon sugar in each of two tall glasses.  Squeeze the juice from 2 lime wedges into each glass.  Add 4 mint leaves and 1/4 cup strawberries to each glass.  Muddle the mixture in each glass to bring out the flavors.  If you don't have an "official" muddler, it's okay to use the handle of a wooden spoon.
2. Add a few ice cubes and 2 ounces of white rum to each glass.  Pour strawberry soda into each glass, stir, garnish with a strawberry (if desired) and serve.

NOTES

• Jarritos strawberry soda can be found in the Latin aisle of many regular grocery stores.  Club soda can be substituted... it just won't have as strong of a strawberry flavor. If using club soda, add a full teaspoon of sugar to each cocktail.
