Rocking Horse

I was going to say that this is my favorite mocktail but I think I already said that about the Little Squirt. This one is ONE of my favorites. One can have many favorite things...right? Like favorite cookie. Favorite cupcake. Favorite restaurant. You can't choose only one!

I have a bounty of fresh mint so I was able to just walk out back and pick a sprig to use for this mocktail. The lemon in this is very light but you can still taste it. This one is very refreshing.

Sounds like a fake mojito, no?

Are you guys around on August 8th? We're coming to G-town and wondered if you would want to take some family portraits of us?
