Mojito

If you have a garden overflowing with fresh mint, you need to try this delicious cocktail. It perfectly combines lime juice and mint into a relaxing adult beverage.

I traveled to Cuba on an education license in law school to learn about the Cuban legal system. The experience was eye-opening. My colleagues and I became proficient in the law and history of Cuba and how to make this drink. Making the drink brings back fond memories.
