# Mojitos | ||
|
||
The mojito is a fine and refreshing summer cocktail. It is also somewhat labor intensive, and requires two fresh ingredients on hand, so planning is typically involved. Here's two versions that I regularly make. | ||

# Double Perfect Rusty Nail | ||
|
||
The rusty nail first non-girly cocktail I ever enjoyed. (I mean, who doesn't love a good pina colada or frozen daquiry?) I've been made fun of by many a bartender over the years for ordering this, because it's an old man drink, and I was in my 20's when I started. At approaching 50 with lots of gray in my beard, I feel like I'm allowed to have an opinion published on the internet of this drink. | ||
|
||
If you like Scotch whisky, but want a cocktail that's cold and a little sweet, this really hits really well. I well made one is just a little bit sweet, a tiny bit smokey, and refreshing. | ||
|
||
The drink is really perfected by the Jonnie Double-Black. It's not the same thing as Black Label—it doesn't even taste that similar. The stuff is not even that good on its own, but something magical happens when you mix it with Drambuie over ice. | ||
|
||
