Summer Cocktails: Celebrating the 4th with a Real Zing-- Mojitos, Sidecars & Ginger -- ...


The Fourth of July would not be a holiday without some special cocktails and I have several over the next few days. So keep your eyes peeled since this is a longer holiday weekend. Most of you have at least half of today off — so the morning is starting off with cocktails every day through Sunday- each day featuring a different spirit including Hennessy



For 4th of July specials, who doesn’t want a Mojito? Tweak yours and make yours different thanks to Hennessy Cognac. Smooth as silk and delightfully refreshing!

Recipe:

1 ½oz. Hennessy,

¾oz. fresh lime juice,

¾oz. simple syrup,

8-10 fresh mint leaves.

Muddle ingredients in a highball glass, fill with ice and stir. Finish with a splash of soda water.



If you want a pitcher of these babies (a smarter move by far), then muddle the mint (more leaves) and multiply the recipe by the number of drinks you need. Simple syrup can be easily made or purchased and you will use up the cognac and it will save you from spending all your time bartending. You could by Stirrings for the mix and save a lot of time— but don’t forget the mint leaves! It’s important.
