Cocktail Of The Week: The Platinum Mojito

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Though rum lovers everywhere will probably hate me for saying this, one of my favorite cocktails to enjoy on a hot summers day is the Mojito… without rum. Instead years ago I was introduced to just how wonderful a Mojito can be when you replace your rum with a premium silver tequila instead. Try one this week and see if it will have you skipping the rum from now on.
