Strawberry Rose Water Mojito Recipe
I’m so glad that the weather is heating up and that we can spend more time outdoors. We love to invite friends & family over during the summertime and cook & entertain outdoors. When we host “adult only” gatherings, we love to serve some fruity cocktails like the one we are featuring today here on the blog.
The cocktail recipe is courtesy of Nielsen-Massey and features their brand new Rose Water as an ingredient. Rose Water from Nielsen-Massey is an elegant steam distillate of rose petals. With multiple uses around the home, in recipes, and as part of a regular beauty regimen, Rose Water is the perfect way to welcome summer’s traditional outdoor fun and opportunities for relaxation.
