make mine a mojito!

by Mojito Maven on July 27, 2008

“Make mine a mojito.” Not exactly your typical blog name, but for those people who know me well know that there is no better phrase to describe me.

When dining out with friends, this is my typical response when the server asks what I would like to drink. Why you ask? Because the mojito is the mother of all cocktails. Thank you Cuba! This cocktail offers it all…it is tart from the lime juice, sweet from the sugar cane, bubbly from the soda water, has zing from the muddled mint leaves, is crisp from the light rum, and if that was not enough, it can be specialized to your liking by adding various fruit purees!

What is my flavor? I particularly love the berry mojito from La Duni, but then again, ANY cocktail at La Duni is fantastic. If you are ever in the Dallas area, I highly suggest you take a scroll over to La Duni for some AMAZING Latin food.

I agree. Any drink (or food, for that matter) from La Duni is delicious! I’m excited that I found your blog. I look forward to hearing about the progress with your home and hearing about some of the great mojitos around town!

La Duni is wonderful. Yummy!

I’ll have to catch up with your blog!! I love what you’ve done with your kitchen – I love the glass tile. And I’ve had a love affair with the color of Silver Sage since I discovered Restoration Hardware about 10 years ago!!! ;-)
