                  Good thing you need less than a minute to complete both, otherwise that would take up a lot of your day.

                            Just the idea of adding olive juice to a mojito makes me gag.  Surely it's something else…

                              There's an outstanding beverage at Marvel Bar up here called Oliveto. It uses olive oil as an emulsifier.

                              Think it, be it.

                                I'll hazard that olive oil has a lot milder flavor than the olive brine that is used for dirty martinis, though.  Actually, I'd like to try that–although I imagine without a stick blender it would be almost impossible to whip oil enough to get an emulsion.

                                  Absolutely true on the flavor.

                                    Ah, with the egg white it would be a little quicker to whip to a froth.  It sounds delicious.

                                        ??  Spiced rum.

                                          Wiki sayeth….

                                          Variations
                                          Many hotels in Havana also add Angostura bitters to cut the sweetness of the Mojito; while icing sugar is often muddled with the mint leaves rather than cane sugar, and many establishments simply use sugar syrup to control sweetness.[20] Many bars today in Havana use lemon juice rather than fresh lime.
                                          Fruit-flavoured rums, such as mango, strawberry, lychee or mandarin, are often substituted.
                                          A Mexican Mojito uses the Mexican native tequila instead of rum as a primary alcohol, and simple syrup instead of sugar for a sweetener. To simplify production, some restaurants will add mint leaves and peppermint extract to premade margaritas for Mexican Mojitos.
                                          A "Dirty Mojito" uses spiced rum, brown sugar syrup, key limes, crushed mint and soda.
                                          A Mojito without alcohol is called a "Virgin Mojito" or "Nojito"[21]
                                          An "Apple Mojito" uses apple-flavoured liqueur as well as rum.
                                          The drink is also spelled Mohito and Moxito in certain cultural areas of Cuba.[citation needed]
                                          An "English Mojito" uses gin in place of rum and sprite as a substitute for sugar/soda.[citation needed]
                                          A "Greek Mojito" uses Metaxa Greek spirit or Mastika instead of rum
                                          A "Mojito Royal" is a mojito with Champagne instead of club soda.
                                          A "Morelli Mojito" refers to a mojito made with Red Bull instead of soda water and Raspberry vodka
                                          A "Mojitaly" is a mojito with fernet branca instead of rum and mapo instead of lime.
                                          A "lychee mojito" is a mojito made with lychee syrup or liqueur and is popular in Hong Kong
                                          A "sojito" is a mojito made with Korean soju instead of white rum.[22]
                                          A "Guava Mojito" uses Union Jake's Guava Brandy instead of rum.[23]
