Comida: Mojito

Close-up eye-level shot of a mojito in a tall highball glass filled with crushed ice, packed with fresh mint sprigs, two lime wheels and a pale, cloudy white-rum mixture with fine sugar grains settling at the bottom. Tiny soda bubbles stream upward through the drink, and thick condensation water droplets bead and roll down the cold glass, catching the light. A brown paper straw and a wooden swizzle stick cross at the top, with a bruised mint leaf on the rim. The glass sits on a weathered wooden beach-bar counter scattered with cut limes, loose mint leaves and a small bottle of golden rum. Background: blurred tropical beach bar with warm sunset light, the ocean glowing softly behind. Lighting: backlit golden-hour sun from the left, warm and glowing through the glass, making the drink sparkle. Color palette: mint green, lime yellow, warm gold, honey brown.
