A couple of hours before witnessing the famous sunset in Oia, Santorini, I enjoyed a delicious and refreshing Mojito (at 12 Euros OUCH!!!) on a terrace on one of Oia's many "sunset resturants" (which name I cannot remember, sadly!)

The original authentic recipe from Havana Cuba
1 teaspoon powdered sugar
Juice from 1 lime (2 ounces)
4 mint leaves
1 sprig of mint
Havana Club white Rum (2 ounces)
2 ounces club soda
Place the mint leaves into a long mojito glass (often called a "collins" glass) and squeeze the juice from a cut lime over it. You'll want about two ounces of lime juice, so it may not require all of the juice from a single lime. Add the powdered sugar, then gently smash the mint into the lime juice and sugar with a muddler (though you can also use the back of a fork or spoon if one isn't available). Add ice (preferably crushed) then add the rum and stir, and top off with the club soda (you can also mix the club soda in as per your taste). Garnish with a mint sprig.

Mojito pound cake with dark rum Italian Meringue Buttercream Icing. Recipe from Warren Brown's book 'Cake Love'.
I've been wanting to try this recipe for ages. It has dried mint, lime segments/zest, limoncello, cloves, dark rum, vanilla powder, sour cream... all sorts of interesting stuff. My pantry has gained so many strange things since buying that book, I'd never even heard of vanilla powder!
My mint patch will be ripped out tomorrow during a working bee, so I figured it was now or never. I'll be feeding this to the worker bees, so hopefully it's nice. If it's not there's always my son's Tiny Teddy Biscuits as a backup!
