What's this?

I learned how to make Mojitos bartending down here. Make sure you at least

tear up the mint leaves by hand. Best, though, is to tear up mint leaves, drop in a pint glass add limes and syrup and muddle. Add the rest, shake, pour from tin back to the glass, garnish...then momentarily gaze at your work with pride before indulging.

But in reality, the only Mojito I like is a free Mojito, so...I'll just shut up and go back to my beer now.

Have you ever made complicated syrup. I have to buy that stuff.** -- dolph 07/01/2020 4:49PM

Yep, equal portions of each ** -- Hokerer 07/01/2020 4:37PM

So is hoosnow asking instead of making (or buying) simple syrup... -- vthokieq 07/01/2020 4:44PM

I think the reasoning is when muddling the leaves, I guess the grains -- reestuart 07/01/2020 5:07PM
