Mojito

RikfromBelgium · 06-11-2007, 09:12 AM

I'm having a BBQ in a couple of days and I'm gonna make mojito's ( " No, I don't think it's a gay drink ... Mo .. ji .. tooooo" )

anyhow, I found a good recipe on wikipedia but I was wondering, is there a way to make larger quantities than just one glass at a time, does anybody have some nice tips, ...

basically you know anything useful about mojito's, sharing is caring

How can you mix BBQ (barbeque, right?) with mojitos? We had a BBQ on Sunday night and we drunk beer or wine at first and then went on with good ol' whiskey.

Now about the cocktail. I have experiment with cocktails over the years and i gurantee that only if you make one drink at a time you will get the best results! Playing with big quantities is not always safe, plus the fact that all the experienced barmen make one drink at a time, too!

My tip is on serving. Even if you don't get the best result, a nice surving (nice glass and mint leaves) will definitely boost it! Especially if there are girls there too!

Have fun! Enjoy as much as you can!

Mojitos are one of my favorite drinks, nothing "GAY" about it buddy!!!
Not a traditional BBQ drink but certainly a good choice non the less, try Sangria usually a good BBQ mix, fairly refreshing.

As for quantity size mix of a Mojito, thats a no no. Has too be done individually due too the mint and sugar mix.

Man I love some mojitos. As for making them in a batch...it depends. Do you just want a mojito type of drink or do you want an actual mojito. Making them in large quantity you sacrifice quality.

ah mojito, probably my favourite summer drink after ice cold ale. here's a few recipes you can try out for different variations. - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
i still like the original but if you have female guests coming, i find that they tend to prefer some different flavours. sangrias pretty good too if you're considering making drinks in batches.
