After the classic and the non-alcoholic mojito, we present a new version! The lemon balm mojito, for the occasion presented as a video recipe, so you will have no problem to follow the instructions .
We tried different herbs to use instead of mint in this cocktail, the variant that we liked the most is the one shown in this recipe; because the taste of lemon balm is a perfect addition to mojito.
If you try one of the recipes on the blog, take a photo and publish it on Instragam with the hashtag #fratelliaifornelli and tagging our profile @fratelliaifornelli.
