mattys "f'd" up mojito!

[Matty_Vegas]

Here (after someone asking me to post it ) is my famous mojito recipe..dirty.
Ingredients

Simple syrup

1.5 cups of BROWN sugar
1.5 cups of water
6 cloves
Heavy fisted dash of grated ginger

Your favourite DARK rum (I currently am using Havana Club Anejo especial)
Soda water
Fresh mint..and when I mean fresh...like the stuff under my rose bushes fresh (lol)
fresh Key limes and when I mean fresh I mean the stuff off my tree next to my rose bushes (lol)

Instructions
Heat brown sugar and water in a Saucepan together until fully dissolved.
bring misture to a boil and add cloves and fresh ginger (like the kind i bought at the store)
Stir occasionally 5-10 minutes..the longer you go..the more pronounced the flavour from the cloves and ginger will be.
Take syrup off heat and allow to cool

In a tall glass..or whatever you have you like to drink add:
1 quatered key lime
4-6 mint leaves
If you do not have one of those fancy muddler thingies a nice wooden spoon directly into what you are serving in does fine.
Beat the bejesus out of the line and mint until well..beaten.
add 2 fingers or so of you favourite DARK rum
add a big healthy splash of the syrup (to taste)..
finish glass with soda water and enjoy.

A nice maduro goes well with this variation of the Cuban classic. out of the 7 people who thried one loved it.

The kind of mint you have growing in your backyard under your rose bushes..I guessed you missed that part. :thumbs:

This sounds like the dirtiest drink next to tossing the salad of a $2 hooker in a bathroom of a run down bar. I can only imagine the nasty flavors coming from this drink, and I sure as hell would love to try one. Yes, you might have ventured to guess, but I'll make it clear now....


I am a dirty old man.

:laugh: ..... I do have that "growing in your backyard under your rose bushes" mint as well but have no idea what kind of mint it is either. My guess is that mine is spearment, it's very, very fragrant.
