CUBAN MOJITOS

A Real Cuban Mojito Recipe straight from my trip to Cuba. Learn the secret ingredient in these famous Cuban cocktails and what makes them authentic!

Provided by Lisa Hatfield

Categories     Drinks & Cocktails

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 teaspoons white cane sugar
1/2 lime (juice only)
1 long mint sprig - The original Cuban recipe use spearmint or yerba buena (a mint variety very popular on the island of Cuba)
1 shot of white rum (good US or Puerto Rican brand, Cubans typically use Havana Club 3 year white rum)
3 drops aromatic bitters (Angostura brand is best)
sparkling water
wooden muddler (small wooden spoons work fine)

Steps:

  • In each glass: add 2 teaspoons of white cane sugar and the juice of half a lime. In Cuba, they don't place the lime into the glass, just the lime juice!
  • Place one long mint stem into each glass and simply muddle (push down and twist) the bottom of the stem only NOT THE MINT LEAVES into the sugar and lime juice. Two reasons for this: one you don't get a strong bitter taste when you over-muddle the leaves, and they stay pretty and green not brown and bruised. This tip came from the bartenders we met on our trip in Cuba and was confirmed with my good friend Abel who is a Cuban travel guide, and trust me, he knows a thing or two about mojitos!
  • Next, add 1 shot white rum, 3 drops aromatic bitters.
  • Add few ice cubes, in Cuba they don't add lots of ice because it is not commonly used, top with a splash of sparkling water, add mint garnish, mix, and sip away!

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 fresh lime
1 teaspoon caster sugar
12 fresh small mint leaves
50 ml white cuban rum
1/2 cup ice cube (crushed or or and cubed ice)
1 dash sparkling water
1 sprig of fresh mint and lime wedge, to garnish

Steps:

  • Cut a round slice of lime, 1 cm thick and slice it into 4 equal parts. Put the four lime wedges into a glass, then add the sugar and muddle (squish everything together) to release the lime juice and aroma. Do it gently because hard squishing may release the bitterness from the white part of the lime.
  • Put the mint leaves on one hand and clap in order to lightly bruise the leaves to releases the aroma. Rub the mint leaves around the rim of the glass and drop them inches Use a muddler, bar spoon (or even a rolling pin) to gently push the mint down into the lime juice.
  • Half fill the glass with crushed ice and pour in the rum. Stir the mix together until the sugar dissolves.
  • Top up with crushed ice, a splash of the sparkling water and garnish it with a sprig of mint.

CUBAN MOJITO



Cuban Mojito image

Rum-based alcoholic drink. Original recipe from La Bodeguita del Medio in Havana, Cuba as stated on TasteofCuba.com (http://www.tasteofcuba.com/mojito.html). Very tasty and refreshing...maybe a little more rum, but that's just me! I used about a tablespoon of simple syrup instead of powdered sugar.

Time 5m

Yield 1 beverage, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 teaspoon powdered sugar
1 lime, juice of (2 ounces)
4 mint leaves
1 sprig mint
havana club white rum (2 ounces)
2 ounces club soda

Steps:

  • Place the mint leaves into a long mojito glass (often called a "collins" glass) and squeeze the juice from a cut lime over it. You'll want about two ounces of lime juice, so it may not require all of the juice from a single lime.
  • Add the powdered sugar, then gently smash the mint into the lime juice and sugar with a muddler (a long wooden device *pictured on the website*, though you can also use the back of a fork or spoon if one isn't available).
  • Add ice (preferably crushed) then add the rum and stir, and top off with the club soda (you can also stir the club soda in as per your taste). Garnish with a mint sprig.
