The Tito’s twist on this minty, slightly sweet Cuban classic.
Ingredients:1.5 oz Tito’s Handmade Vodka
6-10 mint leaves
.75 oz simple syrup or 2 tsp of sugar
.75 oz fresh lime juice

For a little something different, try the French Strawberry MoTito! Just replace half of the mint leaves with fresh basil, and add .5 oz of elderflower liqueur.
Muddle 1-2 fresh strawberries with mint and basil leaves in the bottom of a mixing glass. Add Tito’s Handmade Vodka, simple syrup, lime juice and St. Germain. Shake to combine and pour into a collins glass over fresh ice. Top with club soda and enjoy!
