Chef's Tips
- Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh lime juice and mint for the best flavor.
- Muddling: Don't over-muddle the mint, as it can turn bitter.
- Sweetness: Adjust the sugar to taste. Some prefer a sweeter mojito.
- Rum Choice: Use a good quality white rum for a smoother taste.
- Variations: Try adding fruits like strawberries or mango for a twist.
- Non-Alcoholic: Omit the rum for a refreshing virgin mojito.
