Yummy Rum Mojito

Think it’s the combo of rocking and sooooo much cooler than a classic Mojito

So what is a Mojito well according to Wikipedia

Mojito is a traditional Cuban highball.

Traditionally, a mojito is a cocktail that consists of five ingredients: white rum, sugar, lime juice, soda water, and mint.

Its combination of sweetness, citrus, and mint flavors is intended to complement the rum, and has made the mojito a popular summer drink.
