    mojito's aren't bad. i like the bacardi mojito's with pommegranate (sp?)

    my favorite drink of all time though is a white russian. once, at a wedding reception, i was drinking a shit-ton of them and at one point the bartender asked me if i ever had a 'cocaine lady'. i said i never heard of it, what was it. he said it's like a white russian on steroids. so i ordered one. couldn't tell you everything that's in it, but i did see quite a few bottles being tipped into the glass, along with the vodka, kahluah (again, sp?), and cream. after shaking it up, he popped open a pepsi and poured just a bit of it into the drink. damn good drink. i've since asked bartenders when i'm out if they know how to make one and i keep getting the same puzzled look. bums me out, but i still have the white russians to rely on.

    thanks guys. i've copied down all the recipes and will try them all at home sooner or later. i know i don't have all that booze at home, so i'll have to make a run or two to the liquor store.

    His crew at times supposedly consisted of African slaves who'd escaped the Spanish.


    Pina Colada is my favourite from the few I've tasted.

    I will agree with Dunk that the Mojito is a good cocktail.

    The Cocaine Lady looks good too. Damn work! :(

    Just those awful ones that are premade in a bottle.
    I love mojitos.
    That or gin and tonic.
    I'm with you. :) I only discovered good Mojitos a few years ago since I usually don't like rum or rum drinks (too sweet usually), but with the mint I find I like it. Gin and tonic is my old fav, but also good homemade margaritas. Good tequila, a bit of Cointreau, and lots and lots of fresh lime.

    Sugar cane juice is IMO the best way to sweeten a mojito.

    And please, no strawberries, or watermelon or anything like that.

    mojitos are not girly drinks

    the flavored ones are as with any fruit flavored "martini"

    me, Im a scotch and beer guy.
    And the occasional extra dry martini
    but Im not responsible for my actions once I start drinking gin

    Dunk, Dunk, Dunk...

    Word of advice bro, don't admit mojitos are your favorite drink, especially here in America, and certainly don't admit that while wearing your kilt.
