Mojito (Cuban-style)

I've enjoyed a Mojito at Cuba's famous La Bodeguita del Medio, the spiritual home of this cocktail, and this recipe is consistent with the way they are...

Definitely the best way to make a Mojito, and indeed more like the way they make it in Cuba itself than other recipes on Difford's guide (as I remember it at least)

To us the Mojito Cocktail recipe has a more "Cuban-style" than this one...less fussy...we struggle to imagine the average, working class Cuban Mojito lover adding "2 dash Saline solution 4:1". On the other hand, we've never been to Cuba...so who knows? Still, a wonderful, if slightly pedantic, variant. We certainly enjoyed it.

Very refreshing. I used a generous dash of Angostura and got that lovely orange color on top. Seems about right.

I found honey to be used instead of sugar in most of the mojitos I drank in Cuba.
(I was astounded by the number of plastic bottles of honey I saw around the country.)
