Mojito drink and bar equipment

After my trip to Bali and a lot of party club visiting, it really did opens my eyes for beautiful drinks on the menu card.

So now i want to learn how to create them, and first of all you really need the right equipment such as the correct glasses, bar set, a party packet and of course the drink ingredients such as Havana Club or Bacardi Superior white rum. So I did buy some bar equipment and glasses, and imported it to Denmark from Germany, after receiving my packet from GLS, I did buy the ingredients for my Mojito drink, at my local fruit pusher who had the mint leaves, otherwise your daily food product shop has the Havana club blanco rum, cane sugar and lime fruits. Here is my recipe for the perfect Mojito, which fit into a 35 cl. drink glass, but try to add more of less of the ingredients to find your own taste, it's very individual.

Mojito mixing recipe

- 2-4 cl. White rum (Havana club blanco / Bacardi Superior)
- 4-8 Mint leaves
- 1½ Tablespoon cane sugar
- ½ Lime fruit
- Sparkling water
- Crushed ice

Start with the leaves, lime and sugar, and put it into the glass, if you have a muddler, you can use it, otherwise you have to mix it together somehow.

Afterwards you can pour 2-4 cl. (2 cl = 0.2 dl = 0.02 l) white rum and sparkling water into the glass. Crushed ice is of course very important, and if you don't have a blender you can simple put the ice cubes into a plastic bag and smash the ice with a spoon on a table, that's a real bartender trick, or the correct bartender style is to smash the ice cube in the hand with the spoon, but my experience says that you need a bag for it, otherwise you will get ice all over the kitchen or floor.Put the crushed ice in the glass and mix it around with a normal or a bar spoon.

The last and final touch on the drink is the straw, which gives you the perfect taste of freshness!

I have also embedded this video Bacardi Mojito video, where you can fell the sounds of the making of a Mojito!

 

 

It's the best summer-drink, it's very fresh, great taste, cool to make and it looks quite impressive when you make it in front of other people :o)
