It's Jamie Deen, I'm here in mama's kitchen.
0:03
Now, what does that mean?
0:05
Simple, fresh, delicious, delicious recipes.
0:10
And I'm going to tell you a little bit of inside baseball.
0:13
All these videos have to last three minutes.
0:16
They have to be three minutes, or they can't go up.
0:19
So, today, I'm making a drink,
0:22
and I'm going to go over it
0:31
Three minutes, y'all.
0:35
Got to make a little bit of simple syrup for this recipe,
0:39
Take a little bit of water, take a little bit of sugar,
0:42
take your mint leaves.
0:43
You can muddle them up in there,
0:44
cook it down, and make your own simple syrup.
0:47
This is a delicious recipe to share with friends
0:52
but the summertime is perfect.
0:55
Grapefruit are one of my favorites.
0:57
Mom and Mike have some grapefruit trees here at the house,
1:00
and I pick them, and pick them, and pick them,
1:02
and eat them, and love them.
1:03
One of my favorite adult beverages is the Salty Dog,
1:07
which is the yellow grapefruit,
1:08
a little bit of vodka in a salted rim.
1:10
I don't drink a whole bunch,
1:11
but boy, that's a good one in the summer.
1:13
And I'm excited to try this.
1:15
Now, on Mojito, the alcohol is always rum.
1:18
Rum-backed is what this is going to be.
1:21
Never been my thing, but to each its own.
1:23
I'm going to try it today, though.
1:24
We got a shaker with some ice.
1:29
some of our fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice that we have.
1:33
Also have our simple syrup.
1:39
And then, we're going to come in here with our rum.
1:43
Is this all measured out for a half a recipe, Teresa?
1:45
- [Teresa] Uh-huh. - Okay, good,
1:47
We decided that we were going to make a half a recipe
1:50
and I didn't want to overload myself.
1:52
And then, a peeled and sectioned grapefruit.
1:57
And then, we're gonna shake this.
2:00
I don't know, we've been talking here
2:01
for about another minute or so,
2:03
so I'm saying we're probably going to have to shake this
2:15
All right, let's see what we got here.
2:20
We got our glass with some ice.
2:25
See how the grapefruit kind of breaks down a little bit?
2:31
we're going to add... (can clicking)
2:36
A little bit of club soda.
2:44
First thing I could grab, of course,
2:45
we'll just use a ladle to stir this,
2:48
as one does when you're at mom's house.
2:53
I'm going to put one more little piece of grapefruit
2:57
right here on the top.
2:59
I'm going to part this mint right next to it.
3:04
That's a pretty good-looking drink, isn't it?
3:06
I've only had somebody to share it with.
3:09
I'll share with y'all.
3:11
Here's to us, everybody.
3:13
Appreciate you coming in today and checking me out.
3:16
And until next time...
3:21
I'll be here with my drink.
3:23
I'll see y'all around the kitchen.
3:29
Hey, y'all, it's Paula Deen.
