CariBert Trip Report Day 2 Includes Food Porn
Hey CariBert. Trying to catch up on the trip reports from last week. Enjoying yours along with your pictures, too. Mint Juleps are required drinking in Kentucky during Derby week. They are easy to make, but leave out the lime and rum. Maker's Mark bottles a premade Mint Julep that is very, very tasty, too. I think I'm thirsty now.CariBert wrote:I don't really have a recipe. I just mix the Mojito to taste. I use Rum (white) simple syrup (make my own) limes and lime juice, mint (fresh, muddled) and club soda to top it off. It's really good and refreshing.....leave it to the Cubans to come up with a rum drink that goes well with cigars.
p.s. A Mojito is made just like a Mint Julep only with rum instead of whiskey.....
