My Fave Teaser...

Such a teaser ....yeah a TEASER! why? because it plays with you.... it looks so inoffensive, innocent and irresistible.... but only one could be enough, only one (if the Bar tender is such an artist),  for you to be "happy" and smiling in a short time.... 
It is one of a kind that has that "dont know what" that makes itself so darn attractive and seductive, that even me (a not huge fan of rum)  have fallen under its charming....
And the big deal here, is that if this drink is really well mixed, it becomes that refreshing that you can feel it as much smooth  and pleasant as a cold lemonade in a very hot day....

Have you guys already guessed of what I am talking about? 

What else can I say about it, huuum maybe that you can feel like drinking this the whole night without getting overwhelmed and full...but the next day, you will regret on the fact of have had more than 2 , since probably you'll face one of the worst hangovers, a good one to remember.... :D Well, if the alcohol brand was high level indeed, may be the hangover will not be that awful but you'll get an annoying headache for some hours at least.... Yes, experience is talking from inside me! ;)

Some people even find this drink as one of the sexiest, and they do feel sexy at having a sip on it....Some other find sexy the ones who drink it... you can already picture out the scene in a  Lounge - Bar, at the bar corner ...well the rest is part of your imagination.....

So here it goes the recipe :)... my fave teaser definitely is the famous M - O - J - I - T - O !!!
Ive tried preparing for first time the traditional Mojito and the strawberry Mojito....  and i gotta say it is such an art to reach the point of freshness that you exactly want!!

Do you accept the challenge?

Ingredients:
crushed Ice
Fresh Lime juice
Sugar
Mint leaves, but in Spanish is Hierbabuena, which is different to Mint for us
White Rum
Mint leaves for garnish
Club soda

Preparation:
Put at the bottom of  a Collins Glass the mint, add the lime juice and the sugar, then muddle everything, avoiding the mint leaves to smash.
Add the crushed ice, stir in the rum and top off with club soda.
Finally, garnish with mint leaves and if desired a slice of lemon (optional)

Now time to enjoy! :D

Here are the pictures of my first attempt at serving Mojitos!
