What does one do with leftover mint from a lamb-burger recipe? We’ll tell you.

First you’ll need the following:

 

Mojitos

(yields 2 large drinks)

2 limes

48 mint leaves

1/8 cup sugar

1/2 cup water

Sparkling water

8 oz of rum

 

Take the limes and cut them in half. Then cut each of those halves into 4 pieces. You should have 16 lime wedges when all is said and done.

Put half of the mint leaves in each glass, and two of the lime wedges in each. Muddle so that all the juices and flavors get released.

Add 1/8 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water to each glass. Muddle again.

Fill glass with ice, pour 4 oz of rum in each, and fill with sparkling water.
