My sister Rachel makes the most wonderful mojitos. Every time I go over to her house (don’t worry it’s like maybe twice a year, it’s not like we live next door to each other) I find a way to get her to make me one.
Or two.
But now that I have the recipe I can make them whenever I want!
Well, sorta. My lovely husband doesn’t drink at all so I don’t usually drink when it’s just the two of us. So I will probably keep these special for guests.

- 1 33oz bottle limeade soda (see the photo below)

Preparation Instructions

This is the limeade Rachel uses, it’s from Safeway 🙂
