For my class project, I made  Mojito

60 ml Captain Morgan White Rum

20 ml fresh lime juice

10 ml simple syrup

Fresh mint

Crushed ice

I really enjoyed making this drink and practising the balance between the rum, fresh lime and sweetness. The mint and crushed ice make it very fresh and refreshing.

I recently completed a practical bartending course, and I am continuing to develop my cocktail-making skills through Dan Fellows’ classes. I’m really enjoying learning more about balance, technique and presentation.
