Virginia Wedding








The bride and groom in this wedding are absolutely beautiful! They look so incredibly happy together . . . and what a gorgeous wedding day! I love the natural colors and the rustic touch added to the decor. And this outdoor spot is so lovely! Images from Style Me Pretty.

blood orange mojito



San Pellegrino Blood Orange Mojitos

Ingredients
2 1/2 ounces light rum
4 ounces San Pellegrino Limonata
1 1/2 ounces simple syrup
2 blood oranges, cut into wedges
a handful of mint leaves
sugar
  1. In a large bowl, combine blood orange wedges, mint leaves and a light sprinkle of sugar. Muddle all the ingredients together until most of the juice is extracted and the mint leaves are bruised.
  2. Distribute muddled oranges and mint leaves between two glasses. Fill with ice. Add rum, simple syrup and San Pellegrino Limonata. Stir and serve immediately.
  3. Tip: For fancier ice cubes, freeze 1 part San Pellegrino Limonata and 1 part orange juice. Drop one segmented wedge of blood orange in each mold. Allow freezing time before serving your cocktail.
