I apologize for the lack of updates. I’m happy to say that I’m back with a refreshing adult drink that goes great on a hot summer day like today.

What are some of your favorite summer beverages ???

Organic Mojito

4 organic mint leaves
2 teaspoons organic sugar
1 ounce fresh organic lime juice
2 ounces organic rum
splash of seltzer
sprig of mint and slice of lime for garnish

Lightly muddle the mint, sugar, lime juice and rum in the bottom of a tall glass using a wooden spoon.
Once the mint is crushed and the sugar is dissolved, strain into an ice filled cocktail shaker.
Shake vigorously for 5 seconds.
Fill the glass with crushed ice, and strain the drink into the glass.
Add a splash of seltzer and garnish with a slice of lime and a fresh mint leaf.

Sounds very very nice!
Have never heard of organic rum before. The world is moving forwards

Fave summer beverage is beer (organic if I can afford it).
