Mojitos on Breakaway

[JerseyMouseCruises]

Where can you get a strawberry Mojito on the Breakaway? On our last trip, we tried to order this at different bars and were told, "No, this isn't the Escape". I guess they were referring to the Sugarcane Mojito Bar on that ship....but is a strawberry Mojito really that exotic to make?

Pick up a couple of strawberries at the buffet and give this to the bartender. ;p

 

Strawberry Mojito Cocktail Recipe

 

YIELD: 1 COCKTAIL

TOTAL TIME: 15 MIN

The simple syrup recipe is for a larger batch of simple syrup to keep on hand. It keeps for months in the fridge if you store it in a clean container.

ingredients:

 

 

• 1 ounce (30ml) simple syrup
  
• about 3 fresh strawberries
  
• 4-5 fresh spearmint sprigs (chopped if you prefer smaller mint pieces in your cocktail)
  
• 1 ounce (30ml) fresh lime juice
  
• 2 ounces (60ml) light rum
  
• 3-4 ounces (90-120ml) soda water
  

directions:

 

 

• In a chilled highball glass (about 10-12 ounces), muddle the simple syrup, strawberries and mint leaves together with the back of a spoon or muddler. Crush the strawberries and mint leaves well.
  
• Stir in the lime juice and rum. Fill the glass with ice and top off with soda water. Gently stir.
  
• Garnish with mint sprigs or strawberry slices.
  

Seriously, I am not sure why you couldn't get this drink at a bar.

It looks like nothing more than a typical, not 100% accurate, mojito with a couple of strawberries mashed into it..

 

Should be no problem if the bar has strawberries.

 

Enjoy
