Cuba's national cocktail and Miami's defining warm-weather drink: white rum muddled with fresh lime, sugar and torn mint leaves, topped with sparkling soda water and crushed ice.
The mojito traces back to 16th-century Havana, when British naval surgeon Sir Francis Drake reportedly mixed a similar drink to combat sailors' scurvy on the Cuban coast. The modern formula codified in early 20th-century Havana at La Bodeguita del Medio, where Ernest Hemingway famously kept a regular table. Miami's Cuban exile community brought the cocktail north in the 1960s; today every Calle Ocho bar runs one, with Versailles and La Carreta among the canonical addresses. The canonical garnish is hierbabuena, a Cuban mint variety.
