We love summer. Why? Because it means patio season. And, patio season means partaking in a delicious beverage or two - like the Mojito.

Here is a tasty variation of the ever popular Mojito that we think you’ll enjoy.

Ingredients:
2 parts ABSOLUT VODKA
1 part raw sugar syrup
Soda water
1 Orange or red grapefruit
1 Lemon
Mint leaves

Directions:
Muddle mint leaves, lemon and orange slices gently with sugar in a rocks glass
Add ice and 2 oz. ABSOLUT vodka and stir
Top up with soda water
Garnish with an orange and lemon wedge, and top with a sprig of mint

Simply refreshing!

Bartender secret: Roll and lightly squeeze citrus fruit before pressing it in order to get out more juice.
