Notes

Use limoncello made from real lemons for the brightest flavor. Adjust syrup for more sweetness or lighten with extra club soda. Try flavored club sodas or sparkling lemonade for a twist. Crushed ice gives classic mojito vibes, but clear cubes work great too. For stronger mint, muddle in an extra leaf or two.
