We sure love to remember the alcohol-dedicated days like Martini Day. But today is dedicated to some other superstar. One of the most well-liked traditional cocktails worldwide is the mojito! You'll be glad to know that National Mojito Day provides the ideal justification for sipping a few mojitos!
The Mojito is a typical highball from Cuba! White rum, mint, sparkling water, lime juice, and sugar are the ingredients. However, the traditional beverage has undergone numerous changes with the addition of various fruits, including strawberry and mango mojitos. Some folks top their sparkling mojitos with a splash of champagne and like them as well! Experimenting may most likely be a lot of fun.
Origin Of National Mojito Day
Many people are aware of the Mojito as Ernest Hemingway's preferred beverage. But how did this delicious cocktail get its start? This cool beverage originated in Havana, Cuba. However, there is a lot of disagreement regarding the drink's precise origin! It is well known that the native South American Indians had treatments for a variety of tropical diseases. So, a small boarding group traveled to Cuba and returned with medical supplies. They contained a rough version of rum known as Aguardiente De Caa as well as native tropical ingredients including mint, sugarcane juice, and lime. That means that the water is burning! Although at the time, this beverage was not known as a mojito.
According to some historians, the cocktail's history is heavily influenced by the African slaves who toiled in Cuba's sugar cane fields during the 19th century. Mojitos frequently contain Guarapo, a sugar cane juice that was once popular among African slaves.
There are other misunderstandings and theories about the origin of the name "mojito," as well! Some others think it is only a translation of the Spanish term mojadito, which means "a little moist." Then there are many who believe that name has anything to do with mojo, a Cuban condiment created from lime and used to flavor food.
