CAMPARI MOJITO

 

INGREDIENTS (1 serving)

  • 4 large sprigs fresh mint, plus additional for garnish
  • 1 ounce lime juice
  • 1 ounce white rum
  • 1-1/2 ounces Campari
  • 2 lime wedges
  • 2 to 4 ounces good tonic water
  • Crushed ice

 

INSTRUCTIONS

Place the mint sprigs in a large glass or cocktail shaker and add the lime juice and rum. Muddle with a muddler or a wooden spoon for several minutes, crushing the mint and releasing its aroma. Add the Campari and a few cubes of ice and shake or stir until well chilled.

 

Fill a 12-ounce glass with crushed ice and squeeze a lime wedge over top. Pour in enough tonic water to fill the glass a quarter full, then pour in the Campari mixture. Garnish with a little more tonic water, the second lime wedge, and mint.
