Default Mojitos

Anyone have these?

I have to make tons of these at work. They are such a trendy drink and a pain in the ass to make.

For those that don't know what they are...

Take 3 lime wedges, fresh mint and some simple syrup. Muddle the limes and mint together, add ice and lite rum then 50/50 sprite and soda water and top with sweet and sour and maybe some dark rum

I've had one, don't really care for them much though. I prefer beer... But the Bacardi Mojito commercial puts me into a trance..

That sounds like a huge pain in the ass for a mediocre drink.

How many bars stock fresh mint?

I had one at Wynkoop Brewery here in Denver a few weeks ago and really liked it. I would definitely go for one of those again, very smooth drink.

There is a hot chick in the video. Generally that is enough to make things popular

I like mojitos. I had some awesome ones at a Mexican restuarant in Vegas a few months ago.
