Cocktails: Bohemian Mojito

We're going to be reviewing this lovely little absinthe (Absinthe Mata Hari) next week but since it's niche in the absinthe market is supposed to be that its more "mixable" we're going to take it out for a test drive. Tonight I'm drinking the Bohemian Mojitio which you can take a look at in this video.

Bohemian Mojito

6-8 Mint Leaves

2 Lime Wedges

2 Dashes Simple Syrup

1 oz. Bacardi Limon

1 oz. Absinthe Mata Hari

Soda Water to top

Throw the mint leaves into the bottom of the Collins glass. Squeeze in the juice of two lime wedges (about 1/2 oz lime juice) and add the wedges to the shaker. Add the simple syrup and muddle. Add the remaining ingredients and tumble. Return to collins glass filled with ice. Top with soda water and garnish with a generous sprig of mint. I'm a big fan of the Mojito. This is an interesting spin on the drink but I wouldn't say it rivals the original. Not bad for a change of pace.
