It's happy hour at Carla's place today with mojitos for all!
Carla has created an absolutely fabulous project that would make a fantastic birthday card for a cocktail loving friend, a cruise ship aficionado or someone who just loves to party! Her mojito inspired creation comes complete with straw, a decoration for the glass and a fabulous recipe for a delicious and refreshing evening tipple.
Carla has very kindly included a translation of the recipe into English for those of us who'd like to follow along at home:
Rum
7 fresh mint leaves
1 half lime
Cane sugar
Place a quarter of a lime, 4 mint leaves and 1 tablespoon of cane sugar in a mortar and grind with a pestle until the juice has mixed with the sugar. Pour into a chilled cocktail glass. Fill the glass three-quarters with crushed ice and add the rest of the lime and mint leaves. Pour over 50 ml of rum and add soda water.
Not only has Carla shared her fabulous cocktail recipe, but she has also given us these fabulous templates so we can recreate her project!
