Origen
The Mojito traces its roots back to 16th-century Cuba, where the local indigenous people, the Taíno, used similar ingredients for medicinal purposes. The drink was later modified by African slaves working in the Cuban sugar cane fields. The modern version, combining white rum, sugar (traditionally sugar cane juice), lime, soda water, and mint, was popularized in Havana
Popularidad
The Mojito gained international fame in the 20th century, particularly in the 1950s when Ernest Hemingway championed the cocktail during his time in Havana. Its popularity soared again in the early 2000s, helped by the growing trend of craft cocktails and the increased availability of premium rums

The Mojito has become synonymous with Cuban culture, evoking images of sultry Caribbean nights and vibrant Havana bars. Its refreshing qualities and the ritualistic preparation involved in muddling the mint have made it a popular choice globally, especially in warm climates and during summer months. The Mojito has had a significant cultural impact, influencing the proliferation of rum-based cocktails and promoting Cuban cocktail heritage worldwide
