Ingredients:
10 peppermint leaves
4 teaspoons sugar
6 teaspoons lemon juice
3/4 cup beer ( see note)
1/4 cup sparkling water
1/2 cup beer
3 sprigs peppermint
3 lemon wedges

Directions:
Cut peppermint leaves into smaller pieces and put into a mortar. Add sugar and lemon juice.
Grind to crush the the peppermint leaves and the sugar is dissolved.
Strain through a sieve into a small glass or bowl.
VARIATION I: put 2 teaspoons of Mojito mixture into a glass and cold add beer. Be careful, because the beer has the tendency to produce a lot of foam.
VARIATION II: put 2 teaspoons of Mojito mixture into a glass and add ice cold water and then cold beer.
Garnish with peppermint sprigs and lemon wedges.
NOTE: should make 3 (or 4) glasses.
NOTE: I used a German beer with an alcohol content of 4.8%. It is not too bitter and has some sweet notes. It is light in colour. Drinking temperature: German beer is often served with a temperature of 7 C (45 F).
