Yet another mojito

My electric ice crusher (as opposed to my manual cube-crusher) has two settings, coarse ("C") and fine ("F") (..at least, that's how I interpret the letters). I had been using fine-crushed ice, but this last go-round I decided to try coarse-crushed.

No noticeable difference aside from a greater ability to slide the straw into the finished product. I suppose coarse-crushed allows for more soda to be added, as well, and I think I may prefer fine simply to avoid that result. Either way, using crushed ice (as opposed to cubed) presents a striking vision of a Mojito for cooling off - a minty-fresh libation in a glass filled with spirit and ice - could it get any better?
