Bonus tip
And if you're already a mojito consumer, there are alternatives to this classic recipe.
Do you know the Creole mojito? It tastes a little more bitter if you add 3 or 4 drops of Angostura Bitter.
Or the royal mojito? That of great occasions! Instead of sparkling water, we add champagne which will bring a sparkling and imperial side to your house cocktail.
