Lemongrass and Ginger Mojito
If you know me, you know I love rum based drinks. In fact, I always order those from the cocktail menu. Mojitos are my absolute favourites and I always try to add a twist to the classic recipe. Remember my Green Tea Mojito? Well, this time I am back with yet another version… the possibilities…
Green Tea Mojito
Mojito is my favourite drink hands down. I love a classic mint and lime Mojito that reminds me of my days in Cuba, but I also like to experiment with different flavour (and colour) combinations like with my Pomegranate Mojito or my Pineapple Mojito. I made today’s version for my daughter’s 8th birthday party… no, I…
Pineapple Mojito
I made this Pineapple Mojito to serve to my friends on New Year’s Eve as an aperitivo, just to start things off before we sat down for dinner. We had a Spanish theme that night and I know Mojito is not a Spanish cocktail, but I made a little exception as it is one of…
Pomegranate Mojito
Mojito is one of my all time favourite drink. It reminds me of my time in Cuba, a place I love dearly. I have already shared with you the recipe for the “original” Mojito, made with lime and mint leaves. There’s nothing better than a minty Mojito, especially on a hot summer evening. It is…
MOJITO – COOK AROUND THE GLOBE
When I visited Cuba back in 1998, I learnt to appreciate rum and all rum based drinks. Since then, my 2 favourite cocktails have been Cuba Libre and Mojito, which was made popular by one of its most famous admirers: Ernest Hemingway. Whenever I drink a Mojito I get to relive the memories of one of…

Dairy-free Blueberry Lavender Muffins
I am pretty sure that everyone has their favourite flavour combination when it comes to muffins. Mine has always been blueberry and lemon. Well, at least up until very recently, when I remembered that blueberries are fantastic when paired with lavender. Do you remember my Blueberry Lavender Syrup, Blueberry Lavender Mojito, and Blueberry Lavender Swirl…

Today I would like to share with you the recipe for one of my favourite alcoholic drinks: Caipiroska. What is a Caipiroska you may ask… it is a form of Caipirinha prepared with vodka instead of the usual cachaça. It is a very popular cocktail in South America and I personally love it, especially when…
