     This month we are going to celebrate Mojito. “Mojito" comes from the African word "mojo," which mean "to place a spell."  The drink has roots as far back as the 1500s. Richard Drake, an English pirate, concocted a beverage similar to the mojito by mixing aguardiente (an unrefined rum), sugar, lime, and mint. He coined the drink "El Draque" (meaning "the dragon") after the nickname of his head honcho, Sir Francis Drake, who made a career of terrorizing South America and the Caribbean.

 A Lemon Drop Martini is a very sweet and lemony drink that came into vogue during the 1970s in California. It is now a favorite drink of the West Coast. The drink was developed at a now defunct bar called Henry Africa's in San Francisco, a well-known singles bar. At Henry Africa's bar, they developed and pushed "girl drinks" - drinks that are potent, yet sweet enough to cover the taste of alcohol. Think of the lemon drop candies!

      A Scooby Snack is a very creamy shot that goes down smooth. It is usually consumed in a shot form not a cocktail.  Mix all ingredients in an iced shaker and shake for 10-seconds, pour into an iced rocks glass and top with whip cream and serve. Bailey's creaminess with hints of pineapple and midori, all ingredients blend well together in the drink.
