Made this a while back. Pretty sure I made modifications but can't remember anymore. :(
Ingredients
| For the Rhubarb Syrup: |
|
| 3 pounds rhubarb, sliced thin |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
| 1 cup light brown sugar |
1 1/2 cups water |
|
|
| For each Rhubarb Mojito: |
|
| 4 tablespoons rhubarb syrup |
5-6 large mint leaves, torn |
| 1 ounce white rum |
Seltzer or club soda |
| Ice |
Lime for garnish |
Directions
For the Rhubarb Syrup:
In a medium, heavy pot, combine the rhubarb, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, and water. Bring to a brief boil, then turn down the heat to medium-low and simmer until the rhubarb is soft.
Strain the fruit (actually, I think it’s a vegetable) and set aside for another use. You should be left with a runny, not-yet-syrupy liquid.
Clean the pot and add the strained liquid. Boil over medium high heat until reduced to a thick syrup. Cool completely.
For the Rhubarb Mojito:.
Add rhubarb syrup and mint to each glass (I used a small highball-type glass). Add 1 ounce of white rum. Stir to mix.
Top with seltzer or club soda, add ice, and top with a wedge of lime for garnish.
Drink.
