5 x MOJITO Variations - Refreshing Rum Cocktails..!

[@veronicajackson4879]

We all love the shake & smile, but give Steve some credit for that mint slap & smirk!

[@largesatsuma]

I'm just here for that smile he makes when shaking the mixer.

[@Sardosam]

I know right best part of the video!

[@zakarymeakin6673]

I'm so glad you went back and tasted the drinks. I hope you finished them all mate. Well done, another great video (as always).

[@Barprints]

Can't go wrong with a good mojito. Especially this time of year. Cheers!

Awesome line up. I love a Mojito or 5 on a hot day. Garden party here I come.

Such a good flavour combo!

[@mattbeach8641]

I planted a mint plant this spring solely to make mojitos with, and I'm glad it's grown up so I can try all these recipes!

[@JacobLethbridge]

New to this channel because I just found out there's a ton of fresh mint growing in my garden, and the videos are amazing, but the fan base is even better. Looking through the comments all I see is comments about the "shake and smile" and I have to say, after watching the video I see what the hype is about man! I've never seen anyone that happy shaking a drink! Thanks for reaching me how to make a mojito! I'll be trying my first one ever today!

[@StevetheBartender_]

Hey Jacob! How was the your first mojito?

Mojitos are my signature drink for my 25th birthday coming up. Really cool to see different ones so I can add a little variety. As always awesome vid Steve!

[@StevetheBartender_]

Thanks Christina! Have a great 25th!! Let me know which ones you like :-)

[@carrieslantern9224]

I know a lot of people enjoy the different flavors and I love pineapple and strawberries are a must for my household, yet I still go for the classic styled one's on most drink's. Many of these are real tempting. Thanks for the different types of drink blend's.

[@StevetheBartender_]

Welcome Kerri! Let me know what you think if you do try one 😁

[@exy4037]

you give me smile while you are shaking, then I give you smile too from Japan! Anyway, great video!!

For some reason there exists both club soda and seltzer in the US and I cannot nail down the difference between them.

I think club soda has sodium (salt) added and seltzer doesn’t

Steve just a FYI the cuban-made Havana club is not available in the USA. We have it here in Brazil. I think that there is a US version made in the USA or Puerto Rico of the same rum. The Bacardi family left Cuba during the revolution and settled in Puerto Rico where it is made even still.

My gosh, that Stygian Mojito would be a real taste journey with Blackstrap and Menta. Oddly, I have seen Menta here in Canada, and I already have a bottle of Blackstrap. That one and the Green Chartreuse sound stunning.

Steve the Bartender you have succeeded!

[@kaansarca1632]

Nice video Steve. Can I use mint for the strawberry mojito? Other ingredient ratios change?

[@margotveuve4942]

I have a question which I have heard people debate a lot. Why do you not shake (at least quick shake) a mojito? They say the general rule is to shake anything with citrus, so why the exception?

[@StevetheBartender_]

I think you achieve enough dilution without shaking, a little stirring to combine and the soda water. Test and compare, if you like.

[@flog6037]

When we do some Mojito's we usually have some brown sugar on the bottom. Is this another typ of Mojito or are wo doing somthing wrong xD? Regards from Switzerland

[@XielefR]

I think it doesn't make much difference whether you put sugar or simple syrup in a Mojito. The syrup you don't have to dissolve.

[@stephane.foisy.186]

I do similar. It’s just a variant to get the syrup /sugar in. I middle the limes and mint with the sugar.

There’s many different methods - nothing wrong with your version :-)

📚 I wrote a cocktail book! bit.ly/STB-cocktail-guide

[@kevinalpizar2335]

I want to make the strawberry mojito but I want to make a big batch of it for this sunday. (Super bowl sunday) and was wondering how you would make a big batch of this.

[@StevetheBartender_]

You could do it two ways... 1) batch everything (except soda) into a large vessel, store in the fridge, add ice and soda (as guests arrive). Super easy but it will dilute and lose effervescence if it’s not drunk relatively quickly. The key would be to prechill to avoid extra dilution when adding the ice. 2) batch everything (except soda) into bottles. Measure into glass, add ice, soda and garnish. This would be my preferred method and is still very quick but does require someone to make the drinks. It really depends on how many people you are catering for...

[@kevinalpizar2335]

@@StevetheBartender_ honestly it's probably going to be around 10 people but I'll forsure make it the first method you gave me becuase I would be the one to make the drinks if I did it the second method BUT I still want to watch the game aha thanks steve!
