Pineapple Sage Mojito

New plant this year is pineapple sage.  Took me a while to even find pineapple sage, but found at Lowe's.
Cocktail modified from campbrighton.com
Didn't really like it - not sure what the problem was, but have some tips for next time. 

*I used the monkfruit simple syrup instead.  I should always make it in the morning so that it has time to cool and also marinate in with the herb.  The recipe with 1/4 cup of monkfruit + 1/2 cup of distilled water makes 4.5 oz of liquid or 3 large side jiggers of liquid.

*Also, it was too strong.  Made it 1:1 simple syrup and rum.  Use less next time.

Ingredients:
-2 key limes (can adjust)
-pineapple sage leaves
-1 part pineapple sage monkfruit simple syrup - make in morning and let cool in fridge
-1 part rum (would use less?)
-consider a splash of topo chico instead of less rum?

Directions:
1. Squeeze limes into shaker
2. Muddle pineapple sage leaves
3. Add simple syrup + rum
4. Shake
5. Pour into cups with ice
6. Add splash of topo chico
7. Top with pineapple sage for garnish



*Drinks
