After seeing this on Food Network I was so excited to try this drink. I followed the recipe exactly and was very disappointed. The pineapple was overpowering. I tried it without the pineapple as well and all you could taste was the rum. I have been looking for years for a good at home mojito recipe, and I am still looking.
Swithced the rum for vodka and crush the ice before adding and it was simply deliciouso! Can substitue splenda for sugar (use 1/2 of reg sugar amt)
Nice twist to a great drink!
Too strong pineapple flavor. Just not the right combination.
I love pineapple juice but to me this drink didn’t have the right balance of flavor….I’d prefer straight pineapple juice.
UMMMMMMMMM!!!! Very ggod taste
