July 11th is National Mojito Day! Why not stretch this one day into a holiday weekend? Now you can enjoy this summer worthy sip for a few extra days.
The Mojito is a classic cocktail that will never go out of style. It's crisp, refreshing and the perfect drink to enjoy during the warm weather months. Instead of whiping up a standard version of this famous sip, give it a delcious spin!
Opt for VEEV spirit instead of rum this time around. Veev is a low-calorie, all-natural spirit. It has a smooth flavor similar to vodka but not nearly as potant or alcohol tasting. Thanks to the infusion of acai berries, this spirit is easy to drink and will seriously tickle your tastebuds.
Mix up your own Mojito this weekend and cheers to this deliciously classic cocktail!
