Love a mojito...

Haven't got a Strawberry Daiquiri recipe as well have you..

Ingredients

4 fresh strawberries, plus ½ strawberry to garnish

2 tsp white sugar

35ml/1½fl oz white rum

1 tbsp strawberry liqueur

25ml/1fl oz lime juice

Preparation method

1.Place the strawberries, sugar, rum, strawberry liqueur and lime juice into the base of a cocktail shaker and mash (muddle) with the end of a clean rolling pin.

2. Place the lid onto the cocktail shaker and shake well.

3. Strain the mixture into a Martini glass and garnish with half a strawberry.

Don't you think the sugar will gunk the coils up?

Nice job mate, love the colour . Metallic?

Thanks letsavit picked the paint up from local BMS, primer, paint and laquer, that was the most expensive part.

Looks great crystal soldering/wiring was something I struggled with, looks like you've been practicing

You wouldn't have said "been practicing" if you'd seen me yesterday morning @scooby, the power down button fell off when I soldered the wires to it. Tried sticking it back but glue got inside. Then the solder broke off leaving the wires to it a little short  .

I had to add two short piece of wire to the existing ones, thank GOD for heat shrink tubing.

Ended up using epoxy putty so the button didn't get glued up, solid as a rock and it works now. The air was a touch blue until I remembered the putty.

Learn by my mistakes is how I see it.
