Remember when I went to the Flavors event? They were giving pots of fresh herbs to everyone as they left, and I took a beautiful bunch of fresh mint. Of course, the first thing that came to mind was making mojitos! All you need besides the mint is white rum, lime juice, your choice of sweetener and club soda. So simple!
