Almost forgot to photograph the holiday Mojito pitcher
Hey everyone. As promised, here's what I did for the holiday. It's a classic mojito mix, made with freshly picked key limes. This is actually the 3rd pitcher, so pardon the lack of visual flair.
And before anyone asks, I don't use a specific recipe or ratio. I built to taste based on the palate of the people I'm with. Some of my family like it weak and mild sweetness, so I have the bottle of rum for floating and made a simple syrup for the family who are speedrunning diabetes.
I've been making these since I was 6, feel free to ask me about any of it!
Happy Turkey Day!

I did also make a Nojito pitcher with rum on the side. My lime tree doesn't have fruit right now but the mint is from the garden. Sitting here with a mojito, done with my part in the work, just relaxing.
Niiiice! Don't they always taste much better when entirely homegrown? It's like you can taste all the time and effort put into growing them.
Learning how to get that mix right is an art. Well done!
