When the weather warms up, Jason & I love to drink a Mojito.
Our raised vegetable garden is full of mint…so we are thankful to FINALLY make something with it before it takes over the entire garden!
Our favorite easy Mojito recipe is delicious with fresh mint & takes just a few minutes to make & serve a few glasses.
And…from what I have heard they have less calories than a glass of white wine.
So if you are watching your calories, our favorite mojito recipe just might be the drink for you. 🙂
