What Is a Mojito?

The Mojito is a classic cocktail with a long history dating back to the 16th century. The exact origin of Mojito has been a subject of debate, however, most people believe this drink originated in Havana as a medicinal drink. The name mojito comes from the African word mojo, which means to place a little spell. In recent years, the Mojito has become a staple on bar and restaurant menus all over the world.
