Instruction
1. Take a high glass like "хайдболл". Pour into it 3 teaspoons of a refiner syrup. Sugar is necessary brown – its mild caramel flavor will be impacted to ready drink by the necessary shade.
2. Cut a lime fruit in half (don't forget to scald it boiled water before preparation of cocktail). Then once again cut already a lime half on two parts. Wring out quarters of a fruit in a glass, and then throw crusts there.
3. Now add mint. Than more you will take mints, especially drink will be refreshing. You shouldn't tear leaves hands. Put them in a glass and slightly pound a pestle. Be not overzealous – green tatters in a glass with cocktail will look not too esthetically.
4. Pin ice – the more small, the better. As a last resort also usual cubes from the freezer will descend. Fill a glass in which are already mint, sugar, juice and pieces of a lime, ice approximately on 2/3. It is an important point: components of drink shouldn't float on a glass.
5. Now pour in a glass of 50-60 milliliters of rum. Better than Cuban – for authenticity. Dark rum isn't suitable for cocktail. For preparation of a mojito use only a light kind of this alcoholic drink.
6. Add a glass tonic (for example, Schweppes), insert a straw, decorate edge of a glass with a lime slice. Cocktail is ready.
