Well engineered cocktails
Not dovetails... cocktails!
.
I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

It's ok I'm a professional. Actualy it was a very long trip. Ncle to Sydney (mini bus) Sydney to LA, LA to Cancun, Cancun to Havana about 40 hours non stop travel with only bounce stop overs.
All good fun though, there were about a dozen of us in the group so lots of laughs

Didn't know either, but it takes only 5 clicks...
Mojito (pronounced /moʊˈhiːtoʊ/; Spanish: [moˈxito]) is a traditional Cuban highball.
A Mojito is traditionally made of five ingredients: white rum, sugar (traditionally sugar cane juice), lime, sparkling water and mint. The original Cuban recipe uses spearmint or yerba buena, a mint variety very popular in the island.[1][2] Its combination of sweetness, refreshing citrus and mint flavors are intended to complement the potent kick of the rum, and have made this clear highball a popular summer drink.[3][4]
When preparing a Mojito, lime juice is added to sugar (or syrup) and mint leaves. The mixture is then gently mashed with a muddler. The mint leaves should only be bruised to release the essential oils and should not be shredded.[5] Then rum is added and the mixture is briefly stirred to dissolve the sugar and to lift the mint sprigs up from the bottom for better presentation. Finally, the drink is topped with ice cubes and sparkling water. Mint leaves and lime wedges are used to garnish the glass.

Pick up a bottle of Havana Club white rum, its a very nice drop doesn't taste like Bundie.

A word of advice if youre thinking of hitting the cocktails...dont consume two dozen raw oysters before hand. Theres one sure thing about oysters...they come up just as fast as they go down.
Whatever note you blow youre never more than a semitone away from the correct one....(Miles Davis)

I know a few bar tenders that should see that.
No, I don't drink them but some of my friends do and complain about some places.
