June has always been a month of celebrations for me. Most of my friend's birthday are in June,
followed by father's day and a lot of graduations. This month in our maga-zine we celebrate the new additions to our growing family of columnist with a section about fashion where different fashion designers would be writing ev-ery month about the latest trends and
collections.Also this month we have the pleasure of having in our cover one of the top spanish tv reporters Gloria Ordaz a cu-ban born woman with infinite talent who keeps taking challenges.
For me, after the celebrations ended, it came the time to go to Spain to start a new project I'll be sharing with you in the coming months. It was a trip very different fom the others but sometimes
different is good and in this case it was great! It was a big surprise for me to discover how much my life and priori-ties have changed in the last two years and how important it is to celebrate the good in others, the good in one self and to celebrate and enjoy the moment we are living in right now because at the end, is the only thing that we really have.

The lips are some of the
erotic parts of our bodies.
We use them to speak,
when we eat and when we
kiss and without intending to
we transmit our femininity and
sensuality.
It begins with a good founda-
tion. The lips too, are part of
our skin. They need moisture
and a soft exfoliation. Try and
keep your lips moisturized all
the time especially when you
are in extreme temperatures
such as too hot or too cold.
When you need to apply spe-
cial make up exfoliate your lips
with a small sponge or a brush

For those who have finer lips
and wish for them to look
thicker, you can achieve this
by a lip liner that is the same
color of your natural lip. Line
the lip from the center of the
lips towards the outside and
a little further part the natural
lip line without noticing. Fill the
lips with vertically and even
them out with your finger with-
out it reaching the ends of your
lips. So you do not notice any
lines, eliminate any lines with a
smudger. Then, fill in the rest
of your lip with the pencil. In
the center of your lips apply
a little more color and add lip
gloss for shine.
First, define the contour of
your lips with a pencil with a
tone that matches your natu-
ral lip color then defuse the
pencil with a small brush. The
second beauty trick is large
lips is painting your lips with a
light color, for example a light
beige. Add some light eye
shadow, for example white or
gold in the center of the lips
to enhance the lips. Cover
the lips in a shiny gloss. This
beauty tip will allow the light
to shine on your large lips The
last beauty trick for large lips is
to wet a fine brush and apply

Products to give your lips a
temporary plumping.
These products contain
substances that slightly ir-
ritate the lips and cause a is
not drastic but it does help.
You can use the temporary
inflammation to them. The
change is not drastic but it
does help. You can use the
product for special events.
These types of lip plumping
products come in lip crayon
or gloss.
Light color on the lips make
it look like the lips are larger
then they seem. The darker
color make your lips look
smaller.
This is a very old trick that
gives great results! Cover the
lips in foundation or corrector.
This foundation or corrector
can be made specifically for
the lips or it can be the one
you use on your skin. In the
case the foundation should
be a mate and think founda-
tion. Later apply lip liner that
is the same shade of the your
natural lip. Line the lips and
then apply the lip crayon as
usual. You can add gloss if
you desire.
I recommend lining the out-
side of your natural lip line
and later applying the lipstick
so it appears that your lips
are larger.
Line your entire lip with a
liner that is the same color of
your natural lip color or of the
same shade as the lipstick
you intend to use. Begin by
the edges of your lips and lat-
er fill them in with the liner all
over the lip. Later, apply the
lipstick as usual. The lip liner
will have various functions,
one of them is to create vol-
ume by adding another layer
of makeup to the lip and the
other function is to saturate
your lip with the color. The lip
liner applied all over the lip
can also be used to match up
the color of the lips. You can
use this trick with foundation
or corrector from the above
tip.
Apply gloss over the lips so it
attracts light and they appear
larger.

There is not just one type of pencil
that is best for you. The selection
depends on the occasion and the
type of message you wish to send
across. If you have fine lips, avoid
the mate lipsticks unless you will
add gloss and if you have larger
lips this type of mate pencil will
help accentuate them. Try them all,
it all depends on the color you use.
Generally, lighter colors are used
during the day and darker colors
at night. The mate and creamy
lipsticks offer more versatility and
last longer while a gloss will add a
sense of glamour and sensuality
for the night time.
Mate
Creamy Lipsticks
Liquid Color
With its name its says it all. It has no shine or will have very little
and gives a very opaque look. This type of pencil lasts the longest
and has a great balance of pigments. Unfortunately the downside
to this is that sometimes it will make the lips look cracked and
many people believe that you can only use this type of lipstick if
you have large lips but this is not true-- anyone can use it!
This is the most popular lipstick. This lipstick provides a more
creamy and bright texture than the mate lipstick but are a lighter
lipstick. For being creamy lipsticks they can also hydrate your
lips but they also tend to not last as long as the mate lip stick.
They are liquid lipsticks or gelatinous and have much more shine
then the creamy lipstick. They disadvantage is that they do not
last long and you must be constantly reapplying them. This is
recommended for finer lips.
Add almost there color and shine. They are ideal for people who
not like to look too made up. Lipglosses do not last much time
and can be used over the mate lip liner or the creamer lipstick to
add some shine.
This a relatively new product and last many hours on the lips. It is
formulated so that it dries out the lips and will effect the delicate
skin that is the lips.
In this category we are putting the lips to promise special ben-
efits like how to make the lips look larger. This is by finding sub-
stances that temporarily inflate the lips and will make them look
larger. They also over special lip pencils that have moisturizers.
These are creamy lip pencils that have other ingredients such as
vegetable wax or aloe. Since they have a creamier substance
they do not last as long but do moisturize the lip.
These are some of the most common types of
lip liner and lipstick

Do You Have TMD/TMJ?
TMD pain results from the inflam-
mation of the facial muscles of
mastication, and is commonly
seen with patients that clench/brux/
grind their teeth. TMD/TMJ is a com-
plex condition and a combination of
several factors can contribute to TMD/
TMJ. This article will highlight only a
few common contributing factors.
On occasion, do you wake up with a
headache? Does your spouse/part-
ner tell you were grinding your teeth
in your sleep (bruxing)? At the end of
a stressful day, does it seem as if you
cannot close your mouth comfortably?
Or, have you noticed you cannot open
your jaw comfortably? Are you be-
coming aware that you are tensing up
your jaw/face during the day (clench-
ing)? Does your jaw pop, click, or get
stuck when you open and close your
mouth? Have you been breaking your
teeth? Have you been break-
ing your dental work?
So how does this relate to bruxing, clenching,
and pain?
Are the tips of your front teeth chipping?
Are your front teeth shorter now than they
were some years back?
If you answered yes to any of these ques-
tions, you should have a consult appoint-
ment with your dentist to evaluate and
address the symptoms that may be in-
dicative you have TMD. These symptoms
can either be acute (recent) or chronic
(long term). Breaking teeth and break-
ing dental work may be a result of other
causes, and therefore a proper dental as-
sessment is recommended.
The masticatory system is dynamic sys-
tem. It is an amazing design. In an ideal
oral health condition, there is what I de-
scribe to my patients as a "Zen" balance
of the mouth/jaw. It's the harmony and
balance of the masticatory system. The
design of our sensory innervation for the
masticatory system is astonishing.
TMD--Temporal Mandibular Dysfunction
(commonly referred to as TMJ).
What do I mean by that? Have you ever
been eating and suddenly notice some-
thing was in your food that did not belong?
And, when you figured out what it was,
it may have been a tiny grain, an almost
microscopic piece of bone, or a piece of
shellfish that you could barely see.
You are sensory designed to perceive it!
Your teeth and jaw are meant to com-
fortably fit together like a jigsaw puzzle.
Unconsciously, your body is trying
to get your jaw to seat into a com-
fortable resting position. So, if you
are clenching or bruxing your teeth,
what is occurring, in a sense, is a
tug of war amongst your muscles
of mastication. When you uncon-
sciously perceive that the teeth are
trying to interlock, your muscles will
start a cascade of contractions in an
attempt to seat your jaw into a com-
fortable position. When the fatigue
and inflammation of the muscles
build up, the patient will start to feel
discomfort and pain as the facial
muscles fight against each other.
Your mouth is engineered to
sense the very slightest
thing...
The forces of the contracting muscles are
enough to wear teeth, break teeth, fill-
ings, and over the long term can result in
irreversible damage to the TMJ (aka; Jaw
Joint, Temporal Mandibular Joint).
Bruxing and clenching in many cases
can be attributed to stress or to your bite.
Malocclusion, or improper tooth position,
can also contribute to TMD/TMJ. When a
tooth has to be removed, in most cases,
your dentist will advise you to replace it
with an implant, bridge, or partial denture.
denture. By replacing the tooth,
drifting of adjacent teeth is avoided.
Sometimes the teeth are crowded or
mal-postioned and orthodontic treat-
ment is recommended.
When your dentist determines that you are
bruxing/clenching they will recommend
an Occlusal Guard (aka; Night Guard). It
is lab created and specifically designed
to fit your teeth and bite. Usually it is
made in a manner to reduce the perception
of the opposing teeth interlocking. There-
fore, it prevents the cascade of muscle
contractions that can unconsciously
take place when the teeth are perceived
to be interlocking. As the muscles relax,
the symptoms tend to improve. Occlusal
Guards are made of a hard acrylic. Even-
tually, over time a patient will damage and
destroy their Occlusal Guard requiring
a new one be made. There are store
products made of a rubbery material
that patient sometimes confuse as
functioning the same. Because the
rubbery material can actually trigger
a chewing reflex it can actually further
fatigue the muscles. Some insurance
policies will pay a portion of the cost
to fabricate an Occlusal Guard.
If you think (or know) you are
clenching/bruxing/grinding
you teeth, see your
dentist. Have a
full evaluation to
determine the cause to your symptoms. If
an Occlusal Guard is recommended, have
it made. Early intervention is best. There is
a saying in Spanish “ojo que no ve, cora-
zon que no siente”….loosely translated
“eye that does not see, heart that does not
feel”. As dentists, we have seen the results
due to long term bruxing and the damage it
can do. When we recommend an Occlusal
Guard to a patient, it is because we have
already seen the potential damage in other
patients. Whenever possible, protect the
teeth you have.

A colleague of mine who is famil-
iar with the work of my practice
first laughed when I told him that
I wanted to write about wrinkles. This
is what 8 years of graduate and post
graduate education, along with 31
years of experience led to. The way you
see anything is altered by the depth of
your perception. The familiar line, a little
information is dangerous, is not as le-
thal as taking simple truth for granted.

The Outer ShieldThe purpose of my career is to better
the lives of my patients. It is rare to
actually save anyone’s life, or radically
alter the course of a disease, but it is
possible to offer advice and alterna-
tives that can improve the quality of
someone’s life. The more time I reflect
on the most common concerns of my
patients, friends and family, the more
I realize that the most obvious appre-
hensions stare us in the face. A phy-
sician by vocation is more than just a
health care provider. We are there to lis-
ten to all the concerns of our patients.
They all come for a well fitness check,
or a physical concern; but during their
visit many topics are discussed. Some
talk about their kids, husbands, friends
or perhaps their job.
After 31 years of practicing medicine
and multitasking in the arena, I have
come to the conclusion that all of my
patients have a few things in common,
eventually. Time seems to create com-
mon denominators. As a young scien-
tist the hunger to understand complex
issues seemed to obscure simple reali-
ties. One of the first systems a medical
student must learn is the Integumenta-
ry System. This is a fancy way of saying
the skin. The skin is in fact the largest
organ of the body; it is our shield and
filter from the outer world. When one’s
patient grows older, and one follows in
the same path, the way you look be-
comes a source of insecurity. Common
knowledge shows us that new relation-
ships, jobs and interpersonal experi-
ence is pendant on how one projects is
visualized. In the end one word means
so much to describe a common prob-
lem in self perception, and first impres-
sions; ’wrinkle’. Have you ever lost

something? Searched all over, only to
find the object of your desire right be-
fore you? Human anatomy is what we
see at first glance. Histology is what
we see using different types of micro-
scopes.
The new knowledge about the cellular
make up of our form leads to a com-
plex vision of the human of the human
body. Just a few blocks from my home
is a street that bears the name of a
journeyman; an adventurer dedicated
to the pursuit of eternal youth. Ponce
de Leon thought he found spring wa-
ters in Florida that led to eternal youth.
In this same area today there a score of
plastic surgeons offering procedures
to restore youth. Ads and billboards
entice passerbies to seek professional
help to look younger. Over the years
facets of my practice have been dedi-
cated to understanding cellular struc-
ture and function. In fact much of my
time has been dedicated to consulting
other physicians.
So the book that follows is the attempt
of a physician to deal with a very com-
mon and universal issue: we all age.
That does not mean we have to take a
passive stance and just allow the nor-
mal physiologic process to move for-
ward at a rapid pace. Somehow or an-
other, all roads lead to self confidence.
One reflects a self image by the way
you walk, talk and communicate. The
skin is what we see when glancing at a
person. We don’t see the heart, lungs
or kidneys, but the skin. We should
never underestimate the complexity
and importance of the outer shield.
The eyes are the window of the soul,
and the skin is our protection, media-
tor of sense, and regulator of energy.
The way you look is the composite of
so many factors. Independent of each
factor there are common variables to
adjust the outer reflection, the shield,
the skin. Well, this is how I feel about
writing this book.
My job as a physician is to ponder and
study how to help my patients deal
with their concerns. It’s not just a com-
mon cold, or belly ache that I deal with
daily. My concerns are no different
than any of theirs. Not only are we all
concerned about how we feel physi-
cally and emotionally, we all wonder if
we look our best. For the last several
years there has been a tendency to
explore alternative ways to assist pa-
tients.
The evidence of aging appears in a
unique fashion depending on the in-
dividual composition and exposure of
each person. Some people display the
evidence of the calendar at an early
age, while others look younger than
their years. A true mystery, one that
is being solved in incremental steps
as we speak. The process of aging is
a complex and multifaceted; time af-
fects every cell and system differently.
The evidence of age is visible and
proportional to the life ex-
pectancy of the cells
which make up
each organ. For
example, red
blood cells
live for 120
days. The
y o u n g e r
cell is nu-
cleated;
the ma-
ture is bi-
concave,
while the
older is
fragile
a n d
s t i f f .
T h e
e x p e -
r i e n c e d
eye can

d i f fe rence.
The cells which
make up the epi-
thelium, or outer
coat of skin, live
for 30 days. There
is constant birth
and death of cells
throughout ones en-
tire life. Yet one displays the change of
years in slow motion.
So, the reader can see that a simple
wrinkle is really the unique display of
cellular break downs, manifested in a
line on the surface of the largest or-
gan of the body, the skin. This is why
a scientist has taken interest in the
mundane worries produced by vanity.
In the book to follow we will look at the
structure and function of the skin and
later discuss the many manifestations
of aging. We will also discuss some
simple solutions to masking and treat-
ing the common problems which all of
us encounter, if we live long enough.

Mediation:The Friendly Way to Divorce
iN
By Damary Valle, Esq.
As a family law attorney, people ask me
all the time “Why does divorce have to
be so acrimonious, take so long, and
cost so much?” I tell them “it doesn’t have
to.” Many couples are opting for a friendly di-
vorce through the use of mediation. The emo-
tional and financial benefits far outweigh any
advantage from “fighting it out” in court. A
well-trained Florida Supreme Court Certified
Mediator can assist you in pursuing a friendly
divorce and will assist you in creating an atmo-
sphere of trust and open negotiation.
Mediation is the process of coming to an
agreement with the help of a third-
party neutral, a mediator. The
mediator will assist the di-
vorcing couple who wants
to cooperate to reach an
amicable agreement. Mar-
riage settlement agree-
ments address
property and debt division, parental responsi-
bilities (timesharing, shared parental responsi-
bility), child support, and spousal support (ali-
mony), as well as taxes, health insurance, and
life insurance.
Mediation has many benefits that can provide
a positive outcome and experience for both
the divorcing couple and their children. Me-
diation is far less costly than hiring an attor-
ney. It is proven to be less stressful and enable
couples to discuss family issues in a positive
environment and can become less of a nega-
tive impact on children.
Let's face it, divorce can take an emo-
tional toll on you, your spouse and
the children. However, with proper
planning and a desire to reach an
agreement, you and your
spouse can achieve har-
mony, fairness and mutual
respect.....

Summer Essentials
By Claudia AlonsoCM.Alonso@yahoo.comTwitter: @claudia_mariaa
The Miami man in the summer time
has quite possibly the toughest
challenge of them all- staying cool
in the heat. If you work in an office/
corporate setting there is undoubtedly
no two ways around the fact that you
will probably be wearing a suit four to
five days a week this summer. And yes,
though it is summer time and perhaps
you could go without a tie a day or two;
wearing wool slacks and jacket could
seem like cruel and unusual punish-
ments in late July and August.
Certainly not your stuffy wool slacks
and jacket but rather a Miami man’s
summer essentials!
The white linen shirt, be it long sleeve
or short sleeve is quite possibly the
most versatile, practical and timeless
item you could have in your summer
closet. This natural breathable fabric
helps to keep you cool in the hot sun.
Summer Essentials
Want more bang for your shirt
?
But what happens when you leave the office Friday af-ternoon and venture off into the cities endless weekend summer activities, what are you wearing?
Take your linen shirt out
with you to a bar for a few
drinks, and perhaps pair-
ing it up with a blazer and
some jeans for a casual
date night!
Pair it with your swim-
suit when you head to the
beach and instantly be-
come the dude with most
beach caché!
Finding the perfect sum-
mer short is like finding the
best, quick, delicious lunch
spot-- essential! There is no
better way to survive the
summer then wearing that
perfect short to any week-
end occasion! There are
two types of shorts that are
universally flattering: the

cargo short and the preppy short.
The cargo short is the most relaxed
and versatile option. Try pairing
your cargo short with your t-shirt
or even your white linen shirt for
an easy look when you head out to
the barbecue! The preppy short is
when you wish to look just a little
more dressed up for that family
lunch. Try finding the short in soft
pastel colors or even a blue and
white seersucker material. Pair
the preppy short with your favorite
solid colored polo, or again, with
the white linen shirt for a sharp
look. Add a brown or black leather
belt for a more polished look!
Slipping in to that perfect pair of
slip-on’s might be just as easy
as saying ‘yes’ to an impromptu
weekend in The Keys! The two
most fundamental summer slip-
on shoes are the boat shoe and
the leather loafer. The boat shoe,
made famous for its use on boats
by Sperry Top-Sider is no longer
just for the boat. Take this chic and
practical shoe with you anywhere
your summer adventures take you!
Try playing with different textures
and color, if not stick it Sperry’s
traditional ‘Sahara’ brown. The
leather loafer is the ideal way to
add a touch of elegance to your
preppy short and linen shirt. Con-
sider in investing in a quality leath-
er loafer-- this shoe will transition
with you from Miami’s hot sum-
mers to it’s pleasant winters.

Monica Suleski, daughter of a Polish father
and Colombian mother, was raised between
the traditional values of Philadelphia and the
trendiness of South Beach. Upon graduat-
ing from high school, she moved to South
Florida to attend the University of Miami,
where her love for design and business was
further cultivated. Her goal has always been
to acquire knowledge and culture, after fin-
ishing college she traveled the globe to gain
first hand knowledge on furniture production
and manufacturing. A doctor's wife, she's
a self-professed "machine" when it comes
to staying fit and healthy. Her Husband Dr.
Edmundo Tamayo, who is well recognized
in the field of Internal Medicine and founder
of the weight loss centers Fit4lifenow, share
the same views with her on maintaining a
positive work-life balance. As she transforms
homes, he transforms people.
Monica’s waterfront glass house sits on the
Venetian Isles. Ideal for entertaining; it’s a
constant work in motion- changing furnish-
ings as often as a woman changes her shoes.
Creating an enjoyable home environment,
Monica's specialty is one that doesn't need
to come with a high price tag. She likens it
to women who can wear a $100 outfit and
make it look as though it costs thousands,
saying it’s all how you put it together that
makes the difference. "When you look great,
you feel great," she adds, applying that same
wise adage to people's homes. "It is impor-
tant to have a peaceful, beautiful presenta-
tion in your home too," she says. It's a part
of a total lifestyle prescription that fosters
self-confidence and pride, invites relaxation
and comfort, and reflects happy "I want to be
there" emotions. Apart from her fast paced
lifestyle Monica manages to take time to give
back to the community by hosting charity
events in her Venetian Isles residency. Mon-
ica often visits schools to give motivational
speeches to the youth of her community.
"A house is like a woman, and like
a woman, a house needs to be dressed
appropriately for maximum allure. Ev-ery day that passes that it isn’t styled, it isn’t fully enjoyed"

Over 100 people showed up
outside of the restaurant, as
they sampled the delicacies
of Budare Bistro’s extensive Vene-
zuelan cuisine. Samples included, “mini
tequenos” (small pastry rolls filled with
cheese) and “mini empanadas” (soft
breading, folded over seasoned meat).
Guests enjoyed their delicious food un-
der a large white tent, with the cooling
breeze of electric fans, in order to keep
the pesky humidity away. While live mu-
sic played outside, the inside kitchen
was busy pumping out these
small samples, which must
have been a crowd favor-
ite, because they didn’t
last very long under
guest supervision! Live
music was also played
with the great sounds
of many of today’s local
radio hits; this made for
a nice

Take a trip to Peru, without ever leaving Miami!
By Sergio Naser
El Señorial is a ceviche bar and restaurant that serves au-
thentic Peruvian cuisine, in a newly renovated location,
complete with ample lighting and fresh food.
Located on 1750 SW 3rd Ave. El Señorial is a Peruvian res-
taurant featuring typical Peruvian dishes, from ceviche to
lomo saltado or steak stir fry, as well as other grilled favorites,
such as churrasco or flank steak and chuleta de cerdo or pork
chops. The location has been in business for almost 10 years
and has been completely renovated in anticipation of their
coming 10th anniversary.
El Señorial features a well rounded menu; beyond their Peru-
vian dishes, they also have a selection of chicken, beef, and
a long list of seafood specialties. They have just completed
their brand new ceviche bar, which allows customers to see
ceviche prepared before their very eyes, similar to a sushi bar.
The taste of their ceviche is very refreshing; after coming in-
side from a hot Miami day, it was quite the treat to bite into
fresh slices of fish and calamari, marinated in lemon. A kick
of spicy flavor brought me back from my daydream breeze,
as i savored a hint of red chili in this tasty dish called ceviche
mixto.
Their menu also features many fried delicacies, such as
many types of deep friend seafood. Some of these dish-
es include fried shrimp, squid, and octopus, with one
dish called the jalea mixta, which contains all of these
deep fried delicacies, served on one mixed plate. Their
list of desserts ranges from the usual flan and 4 leches,
to Peruvian desserts, such as helado de lucuma, which
is ice cream made from the lucuma fruit.
One drink in particular
called chica morada,
is a common Peruvian
drink that can be found throughout most homes in Peru;
equivalent to a sort of "Peruvian Lemonade." Being quite
bitter, it caught me by surprise, but also tasted quite fa-
miliar. It turns out that this drink is made with cinnamon,
which gives it a very different flavor. For those who really
like the taste of cinnamon, this is definitely a must try.

In his previous album, Battle Studies, edited in 2009, John Mayer was not only in a relationship with Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Simpson but with a new
affair called pop Music. In this one, in the other hand, looks like he has learned some moves from another ex, the country singer, Taylor Swift who apparently this time broke his heart. Influenced by the teenager, Born and Raised can be classified in the Country section in Music Stores, If they are still any. In his first single, "Shadow Days" Mayer tries to make us believe He's a good guy with lyr-ics that says "I'm a good man with a good heart", literally. The album conquers one more time with his extremely warm and luscious voice but lacks of variety.
In our Hearts can be the best thing We've heard from the electro pop band Hot Chip. More Confident, More Dance and More Joyous with lots of eight-
ies synth pop material as well as tons of groovy funks rhythms, the british quintet come back with their fifth album more mature, with a knowledge that makes them enjoying more not only life but their own music. In our Hearts is a proof that Hot Chip has not only succeed in their consistently music career as well as they have learned the songwriting process with mix of delightful melodies and well produced structures. Totally Contagious!

Hot Chip In Our Hearts

Specified ingredients:40 ml (8 parts) White rum30 ml (6 parts) Fresh lime
juice3 leaves of Mint2 teaspoons SugarSoda Water
It was made initially with tafia/aguardiente, a primitive
predecessor of rum. Mint,lime and sugarwere also help-
ful in hiding the harsh taste of this spirit, While this drink
was not called a Mojito at this time. Some historians
contend that African slaves who worked in the Cuban
sugar
cane fields during the 19th century were instrumental in
the cocktail's origin, Guarapo, the sugar cane juice often
used in Mojitos. There are several theories behind the or-
igin of the name Mojito; one such theory holds that name
relates to mojo, a Cuban seasoning made from lime
and used to flavour dishes. Another theory is that the
name Mojito is simply a derivative of mojadito (Span-
ish for "a little wet") or simply the diminutive of mojado
("wet").Due to the vast influence of immigration from the
Canary Islands, the term probably came from the mojo
creole marinades adapted in Cuban using citrus vs tradi-
tional Isleno types.
Preparation:
Mint sprigs muddled with sugar and lime juice. Rum add-
ed and topped with soda water. Garnished with sprig of
mint leaves.
The Mojito was a favorite drink of author Ernest Heming-
way. Ernest Hemingway made the bar called La Bode-
guita del Medio famous as he became one of its regulars
and he wrote "My mojito in La Bodeguita, My daiquiri in
El Floridita." This expression in English can still be read
on the wall of the bar today, in his handwriting.

MojitoCHEERS
Cuba is the birthplace of the Mojito, although the exact origin of this
classic cocktail is the subject of debate, One story traces the Mojito to
a similar 19th century drink known as "El Draque", after Francis Drake.
