KCK And, if I remember rightly, the mojito is usually served with a long, green chile. My only attempt to produce one of these things (out of a magazine recipe, though I don't remember *which* magazine) was pretty abysmal. I got a sip, my wife got a sip, and the sink got the rest. Anyone have a reliable, tested formula? Summer is almost upon us.... -- Dan//wearing a very scientific hat
