AJ shook up this rockin’ Mojito at the peak of summer last year. At the time, I was 28 weeks pregnant. (By omitting the rum, this drink makes a fantastic MOCK-tail that certainly delighted this Baby Mama!) Back by popular demand, and with rum in-tow this summer, we are ready to toast the sun, the […]
