To many people, the Cuban Highball (Mojito) represents the perfect rum cocktail. The origins of the drink can be traced back to Cuba and the 16th-century Cuban cocktail El Draque, named for Sir Francis Drake. Appropriately, almost all of the ingredients in the Mojito are indigenous to Cuba. Rum, lime, mint and sugar (derived from cane juice) are mixed with soda water to create a refreshing classic cocktail. The Mojito is traditionally served over ice in a highball glass and often associated with summer. This is similar to our previous version (Frozen Mojito), however, we spiked this bad boy with some extra booze and a hint of tobacco ( you think I would leave tobacco out?)
