Big Batch Blueberry Mojitos
I love to plan parties and summer is one of my favorite seasons to bring friends and family together. Whether gathering around a pool (a blow-up pool in our case, ha!), tailgating at a concert or having a cookout, a beautiful refreshing beverage like blueberry mojitos can really add to the fun and tie everything together.
