Hi friends! I'm here to share a couple more drinks that Katie and I made especially for Emma's bachelorette party. They are both versions of a classic mojito, infused with different fruit flavors!
To make a Watermelon + Basil Mojito, use the original mojito recipe, add watermelon and swap out half of the fresh mint for fresh basil. Be sure to muddle a couple watermelon pieces and basil leaves in the glass before you make the drink. It's so delicious! Eating the watermelon pieces at the end is my favorite part!
To make a Pineapple Mojito use the original recipe, but replace the simple syrup with pineapple juice and add 1/4 cup pineapple, chopped into small pieces.
Both of these drinks are so refreshing… perfect for summer! What's your favorite summertime drink? xo. Elsie
ps. Happy Father's Day! Jeremy and I had a wonderful day hanging out with both our fathers. I hope you all had a great day too!

Yum! My favorite way to make a mojito is with mango and a little brown sugar! But First Coffee

ahhh i love the way your drinks always look!
Yum! Those look great! If you like a little bit of spicy (but still, strangely refreshing), you should try this recipe: http://www.cookingchanneltv.com/recipes/michael-symon/cucumber-jalapeno-margarita.html
But I call it the “Spicy Marga-Tea-Ta” – made it for a friend’s cocktail party and it was a hit.
Yum!
I’ll have to try these out, thanks.

I don’t think I’ve ever tried any version of a mojito. The new flavors all sound delicious, especially for a summer drink! Pineapple would be my first choice – it’s so refreshing!

Mojito is my ultimate favourite cocktail, but funnily enough I’ve never tried a flavoured one! I especially like the sound of the watermelon and basil one… I also love a Pimms and lemonade, mmmm
Pineapple mojitos are my favorite! I usually add cilantro to them which surprisingly works really well and I recommend trying.

These both sound really good, and look even cuter. I usually do cocktails in the larger mason jars (like the 16 oz.), but I like how they look in these way better. I’ll have to remember.
Huuum cela donne envie, surtout avec ces belles photos 🙂
Wow that looks sooo Yummy! Mojitos are my fav! Gonna try this!
