FIELD LOG
Mojito
The Mojito is a Cuban symphony in a glass, perfectly balancing refreshing and minty with a touch of sweetness. White rum provides a clean base, while fresh lime juice and mint leaves create a delightful tartness and invigorating aroma. Simple syrup or sugar adds a touch of sweetness, but not enough to overpower the zesty lime. This effervescent drink is topped with soda water for a light fizz and often garnished with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Perfect for a hot day, the Mojito quenches your thirst and invigorates your senses.
