What is a mojito?
A mojito is a traditional Cuban cocktail that combines five ingredients: white rum, sugar, lime juice, soda water, and mint. The mixture of flavours has made the mojito a popular summer drink.

We’ve taken the ingredients of traditional mojitos and simply added pomegranate liqueur and pomegranate seeds to kick it up a notch or two.
