MOJITOP.COM is just a group of friends rooted in Barcelona, who would like to contribute to improve the level of the mojitos in the city.
We like to do expeditions in the city, and sometimes we invite the blog followers.
If you have suggestions, you are more than welcome to share them with us too!
We like to "conquer" Bars, which means to visit them and evaluate their mojitos.
About barris, we often visit Gràcia, Poble Sec, Raval and Born, but we've also been to more exotic places like Eixample and Barceloneta.
To explore all the possibilities, we also try out different recipes for mojitos and their variations.
Also from time to time we'll report on curisities related to mojitos, like the mojitos we taste in other cities.
Interviews and stories about interesting people are in this blog.

Mojitop in the Côte d'Azur II - Mojito @ the terrace of "Le Zapata"

Le Zapata
Carrefour de la Nouvelle Orléans, Angle Rue Dautheville et Bd de la pinède, 06160 Juan-Les-Pins, France

Price: 9€

You know the feeling of Salou? or Lloret? Platja d'Aro? - well, they apparently have exactly the same in France :)
Juan les Pins is a touristic site - where you can find zillions of apartments where to spend the holidays - and very little to do apparently off-season.

Anyway, we headed to a party where there were going to be mojitos prepared by a Colombian guy - but it seems we got too late to the party (it was like 23.30) and almost everyone left. Actually it looked like noone was left so we didn't even knock on the door. Sooo...we headed to the bars downtown to at least have a drink.

And we did! Here's the description of the mojito!
  • Crushed ice
  • Mint
  • Lime
  • Soda
  • Rum
  • Big glass
  • Black straw
All in all it was an "ok" mojito - it was fresh and minty, had all the right ingredients - but it was simply not great. Sometimes the mix just isn't good enough ...

This was the last mojito we had in our trip to the Côte d'Azur - as a general remark we have to say mojitos weren't so great and they were extremely expensive (compared to what we're used to, that is...). So maybe when you go to Nice & surroundings, try Absynth (we did!) or something else...
