Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best rum for a Mojito?
A good-quality white rum is the best choice for a Mojito. Its light, clean flavor allows the refreshing mint and lime to shine. Avoid aged or spiced rums, as their strong flavors can overpower the delicate taste of the cocktail.
Can I make a Mojito without a shaker?
While a shaker is recommended to properly chill and dilute the cocktail, you can still make an el guapo mojito in a glass. Simply fill a Collins glass with ice, pour in the mixer and rum, and stir well with a long spoon to combine all the ingredients.
What makes a Mojito so refreshing?
The Mojito's refreshing flavor comes from the combination of aromatic fresh mint, zesty lime, and a subtle sweetness. The crisp, clean profile of white rum allows these flavors to stand out, making it a perfect drink for warm weather.
