Three Guys From Miami: Cuban and Spanish Food Recipes

Raúl Musibay: The mojito is a classic drink in Cuba.

Jorge Castillo: The best are made with yerbabuena. If you have a Latin market in your neighborhood, you might be able to find some. It has to be fresh!

Glenn Lindgren: If not, use spearmint -- again fresh from the garden. It's the best substitute.

Raúl Musibay: Mojitos are really delicious and refreshing on a hot August day in Miami!
