Easy & Quick Strawberry Mojito Recipe

Sometimes, all you need is a Mojito…

Mojito is a very special and easy cocktail to make any time of the year, and specially in the summer. Now that we can feel the warm weather and the summer is just around the corner, It gives us more reasons to make some Mojitos to enjoy them with friends or family, by the pool, in a girls evening or for a Sunday barbecue.

What about making a different Mojito? 

Strawberries can be found in every supermarket in the summer season and sometimes we buy them but we never remember to eat them, so if you have some strawberries in your kitchen, make sure you keep them because you are about to add some extra yummy flavour to your Mojito.
