What's for dinner Mom? {Key Lime Mojito Recipe}

MEET OUR DINNER.....  

MEET MY DRINK

HELLO KEY LIME MOJITO

I think you know the recipe for my dinner.....

here's how you make the drink

2 parts Rum {I had Bacardi} 

1 part simple syrup*

1 part Key Lime Juice

8 mint leaves

1 key lime sliced

muddle to perfection

fill appropriate glass with ice

top with club soda and....

AHHHHH, who cares that dinner is frozen!

*simple syrup can be bought at most grocery and/or liquor stores or you can make it by combining equal parts water & sugar and bringing to a boil and then removing immediately from heat and cooling.  I usually do 1 cup water to 1 cup sugar and store in an airtight glass jar in the fridge {it lasts a while}
