I love preparing cocktails to serve at home when we have friends and family over. I think that having a few drink recipes on hand is very useful because you never know when you're going to have a special guest, birthday party, reunion with friends, wedding or bachelorette party that requires a nice toast with a tasty, but simple cocktail. I invite you to try this honeydew and fresh mint mojito. Enjoy!
