Cocktail Time with Kevin Kos | Mojito - The Evolution of The Cuba's Best Long Drink! @KevinKos | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
The Mojito is a cocktail with more than 400 years of history, and today we’ll find out how it has changed through time to see if it’s evolving! We’ll dive into its history and look at 3 very different recipes from the one inspired by the pirate Francis Drake, to what Ernest Hemingway may have drunk in Cuba, and ending with my preferred take on it - without the need for a salad of mint and sugar in your glass. If you are ready for this edition of Old vs New, pull up a chair and get ready - it’s Cocktail Time!
