CITRUS MOJITOS

It’s been a LONG week and this girl deserves a drink! I made myself this easy and incredibly refreshing Citrus Mojito to reward myself for getting through it. The days are getting longer, it’s in the 70s here and I have the day off. My plan is to put my feet up, bask in the sun with this mojito in hand.

Also, given citrus season is my favorite, I can NOT get enough of incorporating it in many recipes, especially cocktails.
