MOJITO
One of the most refreshing drinks of all time
Descended from the “Draque,” the 16th-century Cuban cocktail named for Sir Francis Drake, the Mojito is to many the perfect rum cocktail. A classic summer companion, it's hard to find a much more refreshing combination than mint, lime, light rum, and club soda.

3⁄4 oz fresh lime juice
