Rhubarb Mint Mojito #healthydrink #easyrecipe #cocktail #smoothie

One of the main mixed drinks I at any point had was a mojito. All things considered, OK it was really a mocktail in light of the fact that I was 12 and it was simply mint syrup, lime, and shimmering water. In any case, the flavors were there. So allows simply consider it that.

I was snared. The sweet mint. The acidic lime cutting its syrupy sweetness. What's more, the reviving bubble of shimmering water. Ooh child.

Which takes us to now. I'm perched on my mother's love seat in Boston, attempting to talk as meager as conceivable in light of the fact that my voice has been rough for seven days now. I'm drained and feel a virus going ahead, however my heart is likewise full with appreciation for the astounding things I've been a piece of in these most recent couple of weeks. Life is insane and short and brimming with fervor and opportunity and I'm simply trying my best to absorb everything.
