I've made a new drink that I think you all will really like. The discriminating drinker will see that it's based on a mojito, but I thinks it's a little more versatile. The recipe is: 1.5 oz of your favorite spirit 1.5 oz pineapple juice The juice of half a lime (.5-1 oz) About 8 mint leaves 1 tsp water Muddle the mint and water together in the bottom of your glass and toss the lime shell in there, then top it with ice. Combine the spirit and juices together in your shaker with some ice and shake it up, then strain into your glass. Give the concoction a brisk stir. Now you have a Gigi! A little sweet, a little tart, and a little minty. I've only tried this drink with rum and vodka so far, but I think it would work well with whiskey or tequila, and maybe even gin. You'll have to try it out and let me know!
