{THIRSTY THURSDAY} Black Cherry Mojito

It's cold & yucky outside, but all I can think about is sitting on the beach...my toes in the sand...a good book by my side...and a chilly beverage in my hand! Tonight, I'll be pretending that I'm on a beach...join me! 

One of my favorite beach drinks is a refreshing & minty mojito. Lately, I've been experimenting with new flavors to give my traditional mojito a little kick. Right now I'm hooked on the Black Cherry Mojito.

1 part Black Cherry Rum
1 part Light Rum
Juice of 1 whole Llime
