Notes

The syrup recipe will make enough for 8 mojitos.
4 ounces of strawberries should be about ¾ cup chopped strawberries.
If you don't have an immersion blender, allow the strawberry mixture to cool in the saucepan for 20 minutes, then add it to a blender and blend until smooth.
Be sure to be careful when muddling in a glass! Use a sturdy glass and gentle pressure.
