Mmmmmojito.

Because I am always the last person ever to try anything anywhere, I just discovered that mojitos are awesome.

And if you take Bacardi frozen mojito mix + 2 cans water and leave out the rum, half-fill a glass with the resulting mixture, and top that up with some sort of lime soda (my preference is for this “Crystal Clear” stuff they have at Kroger instead of Sprite or whatever, because they have actual Key Lime flavor), you have basically the best hot-weather drink EVER. I want to drink this by the gallon. :9

A second lime+minty goodness experiment has also gone well. 1-liter bottle of aforementioned Crystal Clear key lime soda (or equivalent) + 2 mint tea bags poked right into the bottle (herbal or actual tea, both seem to work fine) + an hour or two for the tea bags to soak = mojito soda. Not nearly as sweet as the Bacardi mix version, very light and tasty, zero calories.

Either way, yeah, just hook me up an IV of lime, mint, and ice. Rum optional.
