From page 122, Mr Boston Official Bartender's Guide
1 1/2 Oz. Rum (Bacardi Light)
1/2 Oz. Créme de Menthe (LeRoux White)
1 dash Lemon Juice (I used 1/2 tsp)
Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass. I garnished with a small lemon wedge.
This was a surprisingly good drink. The recipe is very simple but yielded a flavorful cocktail. My wife thinks this is the grandfather of the Mojito! Which it may be. It bypasses the mint leaves and sugar, uses lemon juice instead of lime, plus rum.
Anyway, an excellent cocktail, worthy of serving at your next cocktail party. Try it. You'll be pleasantly surprised.
