I DON"T want to come off as an annoying know it all, so...please don't think that. ;) Makes me wonder if I should just stop since I had to start that way...Anyway-Luke boils water and sugar in a sauce pan and makes a syrup. He keeps it in the refrigerator until time to make drinks. It really does speed things up in the long run and the drink will be really smooth. The other thing is that mint is most fragrant when crushed but not overly mashed- we ground up the mint too much with a mortar and pestle one time and the mint takes on a sharp edge. So now we just bruise the leaves and mix them in. Luke's handy drink manual says that's why mojitos are traditionally served with a straw...because the mint leaves will hit your lips otherwise. Who knew. I'm really considering deleting this and not posting it...I spent 5 minutes of my life typing it, so...<br /><br />Happy drink making! =)<br /><br />AndriaL, Ann and boyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17819091836222076208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-192232606244623892.post-82893158388625294032012-05-15T18:49:23.373-04:002012-05-15T18:49:23.373-04:00sounds really refreshing!
