Backyard Mojitos

Image
For #LaredoEarthDay we were challenged to make something using our garden herbs. One of my favorites is this easy-to-make, perfect drink of a chill day lounging on the porch. We used key limes from our tree in the front yard and mint from our backyard herb garden. Smirnoff Ice 3 Key limes Handful of mint Sugar + salt Ice With a lime, gently squeeze and rub rim of glass. Place glass rim onto a plate of sugar or salt (we mixed both). Fill glass with ice, throw sugar and/or salt on top, squeeze 1 or 2 limes on top of ice. Crack open Smirnoff Ice and pour into glass. Takes leaves of mint and slap between palms, stir into drink, add reusable straw, and enjoy!
