Fresh Mint Mojito

I love all good things in life including great food and a fabulous cocktail! My sister and my niece came to visit us recently. The trip was everything I could dream of and more. Precious time with family, morning coffee with my favorite gal and brunch!

As soon as they landed, the adventures began. We hit the strip for brunch at Paris and sis ordered two mojitos for us. Who can resist fresh mint?! We jam-packed the entire trip with priceless moments. OH, and hilarious moments because well, Vegas. Did you ever have one of those trips that was just too good? This was one of THOSE trips.

We didn't want them to leave. In fact, at the end of the trip, I circled around the airport THREE different times to get more time with them. Okay fine, I was actually lost and confused due to construction but I secretly enjoyed getting lost so we could hang out more. Nonetheless, Mojitos will forever be a Tita Ashley special so it was only right I kicked off my new series with a quick and easy recipe to share. Be sure to make this at your next get together or when you want to wow your tastebuds with a refreshing classic. It's a little work but so worth it.
