Caballito Mojito Cocktail
Review: A Mojito with a splash of vermouth. Once you tried this with the right rum and vermouth, there's no going back to a regular Mojito.

The original Cuban recipe calls for equal parts rum and "vermouth italiano" (rosso vermouth), but bianco vermouth better suits this cocktail and may not have been available to Cuban bartenders in the 1930s-40s.
History: Adapted from a recipe in the 1948 El Arte del Cantinero Cuban bartenders manual.
Ingredients
  • 8 fresh Mint leaves
  • 1 ½ fl oz Light gold rum (1 to 3 year old molasses column)
  • ¾ fl oz Strucchi Bianco Vermouth
  • ½ fl oz Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1/6 fl oz Sugar syrup 'rich' (2 sugar to 1 water, 65.0°Brix)
  • 2 dash Angostura Aromatic Bitters
  • ½ fl oz Thomas Henry Soda Water
