Ingredients

  5. Add crushed ice. Top up with rum.
  6. Serve with a spoon (never with a straw).

    I travel all over the world and I can highly recommend the St Regis Hotel bar in Singapore for the best Mojito i have ever tasted.....simply sensational. And of course the luxurious surroundings and 'genuine' Picasso's hanging in the bar make for a memorable evening :D
