The Limoncello Journey Continues {Limoncello Mojito}

Limoncello Mojito
You knew this was coming.
In fact, I know you were like WTH is taking so long.


I apologize.  It's this darn diet.


But as promised, I am drinking this weekend and that leftover Easter Limoncello has been calling me....
 "Heeeiiiidi, Heiiiiidddddi.... you know you need to make a Mojito out of me".


And I did.  And SBJ, it was so worthy.
 Please, break out your Limoncello and join me
