It was my sister's graduation party on Saturday where friends and family gathered to celebrate. One of my jobs for the party was to make a mixed drink, among others, and I choose to make mojitos. Mojitos are a great summer time drink and goes great with just about everything. One of my best friends father, Randal Fenton, and I enjoyed the mojitos throughout party as we caught up on everything going on in our lives. I've known Mr. Fenton since I was 5 and consider him a second father so it is always great to catch up with him.
My parents hired a reggae band and the music and this summertime drink created a perfect match for a perfect night.

Have you ever tried adding strawberries? I had one the other day and it was very refreshing in this 102 degree heat!!
