During my stay in Venezuela I fell in love with Mojitos, and, while they inspired this post, this story does not begin and end with that minty Caribbean beverage. No, we are taking a much darker turn into the depths of the creative mind where insanity lurks, and, if we're lucky, pure genius. A crazy drink idea spawned while I was shopping at the store for ingredients. As is so often the case with crazy ideas, the wheat of brilliance had to be separated from the chaff of stupidity, so after some experiments and refinements, sanguine ecstasy was born.
