I would love to hear from you. 

Today I am going to share with you a watermelon mojito recipe. An amazing way to a give twist to fresh watermelons. For me watermelon is one of the very few fruits that I never get bored of. As a proof you will find different watermelon based recipes in near future that I am currently working on.
