Meet your new go-to cocktail for summertime! Refreshing lime, fresh mint, & sweet cherry come together perfectly in these frosty Cherry Limeade Mojito Floats...
When it comes to summertime, my cocktail of our choice is a crisp & refreshing mojito. I love the muddle of fresh lime and mint added to a little rum and finished off with some bubbly club soda.
So when I saw this set of 4 Mojito glasses at my local thrift store for a whopping 50 cents a piece, I snatched them right up! ;) I mean, I have more cocktail and wine glasses than I know what to do with in my cupboard, but seriously. How could I resist these, folks? It was just fate that my mojito-loving self stumbled upon these a few weeks ago. Who am I to deny fate?
And while I can always go for a classic mojito, I thought my new thrift store find deserved something a little more celebratory. Something a little more summer festive, and what says summer has officially arrived better than a frosty float, right? :)
I kept all the elements of a classic mojito with these Cherry Limeade Mojito Floats, but I added something a little extra to it- a scoop of cherry sorbet!
I was able to find a pint of black cherry sorbet at my local Kroger, but if you can't find cherry sorbet feel free to use lime sherbet instead. Just muddle some fresh pitted cherries in with the mint and lime quarters when making this cocktail so that you still get that sweet cherry flavor in these floats.
What has been one of your all-time favorite thrift store finds?
