I’m not even sure that La Bodeguita’s was the best mojito I had in Havana– they were all so good it was pretty hard to distinguish them. You don’t need to go to Hemingway’s favorite to find a great mojito in old Havana– every bar and restaurant will be pretty skilled in churning mojitos out. Sit at the bar and watch as the bartender lines up the glasses by the half-dozen, expertly melding the ingredients with a wooden muddler.
The classic Cuban mojito is best enjoyed in its natural environment in Old Havana, Cuba– preferably at Hemingway’s favorite mojito bar. Somehow, the mix of cool mint, a blast of white rum, and a hit of sugar, all muddled together became the most refreshing drink I’d ever tasted. All it took was one balmy afternoon spent at the ancient wooden bar at La Bodeguita to convert me.
