Reviews
I don’t really like Mojito’s so I used alil less mint…I thought it was great!
Loved it. Perfect way to use up a couple of those apples we picked! I wanted to note too that instead of using a sugar/water simple syrup, since I am a beekeeper I nuked a couple tablespoons of water (not to boiling, just hot to the touch) and added a similar amount of honey to it and stirred to make a honey simple syrup. I then used that to make the mojito.
If you like the fresh apple taste not that fake syrupy foo-foo crap this is the best!!!!
as a regular consumer of all crazy flavored mojitos these just might be my absolute favorite! they are super light and refreshing!!!!!!!!!! you have to make these!
Great tasting recipes… Not much for mojitos but it was a great palet lifter for this dish.
in my opinion this drink should definately be made with rum,not vodka…like a traditional mojito.all the other stuff works great together.we always go to a restaurant out here called OOKA and there this is (with rum)a japanese mojito.yummy!
Bland.
i thought it tasted very good. i am normally not a drinker because i can never find someting i like this was delicious.
