makin' mojitos...

The mojito is possibly the yummiest and most refreshing summer cocktail ever, and my current favourite. We made a batch of these tonight - perfect for these balmy summer evenings we've been having.


I wish I could share how wonderful the limes and mint smell, once you start chopping them up! So fresh and zesty!


Must be raw sugar, tastes so much nicer.



A slurp of rum (not too much)



I use a rolling pin to muddle my mojitos (Martha Stewart would surely be proud)



Pour over ice and top with soda water, mmm.

    I am more of a kiddo...I make chocolate milkshakes when it gets too hot. Lol!

    Then my bf and I slurped it out of these gigantic novelty glasses. Lol.

  2. I love anything South American, esp cocktails. These look great. Might make one tomorrow. Happy New Year.

  3. I love chocolate milkshakes too bowsnhearts! The Lindt cafe ones are the best.

    FF, they are so fantastic, and because they are full of soda water, you don't get dehydrated! Happy New Year
