In this episode we continue with the history of another milestone in console gaming history with the advent of the Xbox 360, where I discuss the consoles impressively long life span, how it was conceived, and some of the hiccups that occurred along the way. The coupled cocktail with this review is the history and creation of the Mojito, whose recipe comes from liquor.com.

Mojito

- 3 mint leaves

- 1/2 ounce of simple syrup

- 2 ounces white rum

- 3/4 ounce lime juice

- Club soda on top

- Garnish with mint and lime wheel

Directions: First muddle the mint and simple syrup in the shaker. Next add the rum, lime juice and ice and give it a quick shake, straining the mixture into a highball glass. Finally, you'll want to top with club soda and add your garnish.
