DIY Cocktails: creating a summery mojito

Spring has sprung but it’s still cold as ice outside and therefore not quite time to enjoy what some might call a quintessential summer drink.

But in the same way those light box lamps trick the body into thinking it’s been bathed in a ray of sunshine, I think a Mojito does just as good a job!

There are many variations, but the classic Mojito is one of the bestselling cocktails around. It requires a little care and attention to prepare just right, but it is well worth the effort. Add less sugar if you like things on the sour side; more if you have a sweet tooth. It’s extremely delicious and always in season - no matter what season it may be.
