A mojito is a drink with rum, lime, club soda and a sprig of mint. They are very tasty, and served on ice. You want the lighter rums, fresh lime juice, maybe even some mint syrup. They are good summertime drinks.
I think this is how you make a mint julep. You crush a big sprig of mint with a spoon of sugar in a glass with a little water. Then you fill the glass with ice and pour bourbon over it. Garnish with more mint.
I have to admit I have never actually had a mint julep. But I love mojitos.
