you put de lime in de... um... mint... and den you... get slutty prada girls drunk?

It wasn't easy, mind you. My first couple attempts were lackluster, to be sure. The key, of course, was to crush the mint leaves with a mortar and pestle in a bit of club soda, the lime juice, and--instead of just sugar--a simple syrup made from sugar and herbal mint tea. Throw in a couple drops of bitters in the end, and I--my friends--have just succeeded in making a pretty damn good home made mojito.

...

Why do I feel less like a man for admitting that?

I guess I shouldn't mention how I was similarly victorious is using malibu and coconut milk to make a Coco Mojito, should I?

crushing mint and sugar works well, but making simple syrup in a pan does too.

i have to admit my skepticism about the tea, yes.
