2 oz. Cathead Honeysuckle Vodka
juice from a large lemon
large splash of Simple Syrup
Put all ingredients in cocktail shaker with ice and shake vigorously. Serve in a martini glass with a lightly sugared rim.

This makes one cocktail.
I am always trying out new kinds of Mojitos. They are so tasty and refreshing but I don’t usually like them in restaurants because they tend to be overly sweet and artificial tasting. This one ends up being the most beautiful shade of pink also!
