Look out, Jax!  Rockstar is a professional and really, really good at what he does.

I've got some real key lime juice from my tree's crop last year frozen to contribute.

Unfortunately, despite my efforts to protect it, it froze last winter after the harvest.  Am planting a new one this winter.
When all else fails hug the dog.

I look forward to the challenge.  I may not be a professional mixer, but I am a professional drinker, and have come up with a mojito recipe that blows anything away in the MetroJax area.  Anyone who has had them, has never been able to enjoy them away from my house.  It's a curse, but one I'm willing to bear, and my friends are glad that I do.

I'll be working the day/Happy Hour shift tomorrow (Thursday) @ Dos Gatos, 4-8pm. Come try one and tell me what you think.

Tuesdays and Thursdays I coach youth baseball after work, and I try not to pull the Morris Buttermaker prior to coaching children.  Any other weekdays than these?

Need an impartial judge for the mojito showdown?

Your civic mindedness is making me thirsty....let me check my schedule... and @billy, happy to have a fair minded judge on board, be there when it happens!

I am out of town at present , but I hope to be back in the metro area mid August....

I didn't realize it was to be a showdown, but if it is, am I allowed to bring my own ingredients and get behind the bar?

It's not...I think @billy wanted to be in on any mojito madness that we had going... come down and try one of mine. We'll compare notes. If yours is really that good, I promise I can show you how to make it even better. And your legend will grow amongst your friends! LoL!!!
Besides, I have an extensive rum collection as well as all of the fresh ingredients...so unless you're using something exotic (which I probably have), we should be able to replicate yours as well...

JaxNative68

Who doesn't want to be involved with mojito madness?
I make my own simple syrup and doctor my rum with a secret ingredient, which would be hard to replicate on the outside.  I make the traditional mojito and I also make a variety of flavored mojitos at times to mix things up.
Let me know your schedule next week, so I can sample my competition and maybe share my secrets to make yours even better :)  but will want profit sharing in boost of mojito sales

Professional drinker! How did you swing that? Sweet!
The question is, how do you relax at the end of a long hard work workday?

I am but a gifted amateur.
