Strawberry XYZ Cocktail

Ingredients
2oz light rum
1oz Cointreau (or triple sec)
1oz lemon juice
1oz strawberry juice
Ice

Directions
Cut your lemon garnish before squeezing the lemon (twist or very thin slice to float on top). Shake all liquids with ice, strain into chilled cocktail glass. Add garnish.

This makes a lot, feel free to reduce all ingredients by 25%. We get strawberry juice by letting a lot of strawberries defrost in a container. You can make a regular one without strawberry juice, too.

Magic Mojitos

A tremendous accompaniment to Bergie's Ganked Guacamole, these mojitos will quench your thirst and have you back at the bar for more.

Ingredients*
3 fresh mint sprigs
2 tsp. sugar
3 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1.5 oz. light rum
club soda & ice

Directions
Crush part of the mint with a fork in a tall glass, to coat the inside. Add sugar and lime juice and stir thoroughly. Top with ice, add rum and mix. Top with chilled club soda or seltzer. Add a slice of lime and a mint sprig to serve.

*Mojitos are very time consuming to make. I recommend multiplying the recipe and premixing sugar, lime juice and rum.
