Moscato Strawberry and Lemon Mojitos are the most refreshing cocktails for summer, and they’ll please any crowd!
These Moscato Strawberry and Lemon Mojitos are so good. When I make my Spiked Strawberry Lemonade, I use a touch of mint, and it really brightens it up, so I thought, why not do a big mash-up and make a strawberry and lemon Mojito.
Then I was informed that today is National Moscato Day, and I had to include some in this drink. I had wanted to make a Moscato Mojito, and this was the perfect chance! I took the pictures with a strained drink. I don’t like drinking mojitos when it seems like you’re eating them. You know what I mean? Sometimes there is so much mint in the glass it’s hard to drink. I think next time I’ll do a happy medium with just a bit of the muddled mixture in my glass.
I love cocktails in the summer. It’s so great to make a drink, sit out back, and chat with my husband in the evening. Another of my favorites is this Lemon Drop Martini. The citrus flavor is so bright and amazing on a warm summer evening.
