Wet & Forget Backyard Summer Eats and Drinks

It’s hard to believe, but we’re already into the third week of the Wet & Forget Great Backyard Giveaway. Good luck to all who’ve had a chance to enter. We have some excellent summer eats recipes to share with you this week!

DRINK OF THE WEEK

Mojitos

Requires: mint, sugar, lime, rum, 7Up, ice

A Cuban Mojito will hit the spot if you’re looking for a refreshing drink. This light drink is a nice mix of refreshing citrus and mint with a hint of rum that will quench your thirst even on the warmest summer days.

  1. Put a liberal amount of fresh mint in the bottom of your glass.
  2. Add 2 teaspoons of sugar and grind the mint and sugar together with a muddler; bruise the leaves to bring out the oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves.
  3. Squeeze 1 fresh lime and add the juice to your glass.
  4. Add 1 shot or 1.5 oz. of Captain Morgan spiced rum.
  5. Mix in 2/3 can of cold 7Up and stir.
  6. Add 1/2 of a lime and 6 ice cubes.
