Travel and cocktail parties might be on hold, but I’d be willing to bet that we all could use a little bit of liquid refreshment. Why not create your own favorite cocktail at home!
While sheltering in place, I decided I would try my hand at making a Mojito - my go-to cocktail.
I am delighted to share with you the recipe that I have been enjoying along with refreshments inspired by some of the most popular bars on the high seas!
