I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my mojito turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much club soda.

I'm allergic to mint, so I substituted basil in this recipe. It turned out great! The basil gave the mojito a unique flavor that I really enjoyed.

This mojito recipe is way too sweet for me. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mojito didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The flavors were a bit too sour for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of mojitos, but this recipe is pretty good. The mint and lime flavors are nice, and the rum isn't too overpowering.

This mojito recipe is a great way to use up fresh mint from the garden. It's also a delicious and refreshing drink to enjoy on a hot summer day.

I tried this recipe last night, and it was delicious! The mint and lime flavors were so refreshing, and the rum gave it a nice kick. I'm definitely going to be making this again soon.
