You can't go wrong with mint and champagne! What a great Mojito twist. Love it.

My favourite cocktail, perhaps because it’s what my fiancé and I drank to celebrate our engagement in Paris in Cafe Panis overlooking Notre Dame. FYI it’s lethal on an empty stomach, be warned!

Very good high-end mojito. Champaign adds an interesting touch.

This is really lovely, though I do recommend slapping the mint before adding to the glass and muddling with the simple syrup and lime juice to bring out even more mint flavor.
