Mojito Pitcher

To round out the perfect Cuban inspired menu, you must have a great cocktail. I enjoy serving a great Mojito. Mojitos are great in the summer or really, anytime. My recipe makes a pitcher and typically serves five drinks per pitcher. Years ago, I would make a pitcher of my Mojito’s for myself and my friend Sara and we’d drink them up while we floated in the pool in the warm, summer sun. You don’t need a pool or the sun to enjoy my Mojito Pitcher.
