I started thinking mojito when we were at the supermarket this evening, but I forgot to buy limes. Come to find out, you can make a very tasty, mojito-like drink without them. A word of caution - they go down much too easily.
I muddled (using the handle of my wooden meat tenderizing mallet) a large sprig of mint with half of a lemon (cut into quarters), added ice, a generous shot of rum, 3 to 4 tablespoons of simple syrup (a 1:1 ratio of sugar and water, heated in the microwave just until the sugar dissolves), and enough sparkling water to fill the glass.
