May I sub the white balsamic for regular balsamic vinegar? If so, would it affect the amount?

You can use regular balsamic instead of white, but I'd use a third or so less.

Thanks so much!

Is the photo a strawberry mojito? Also, is the glass filled with cracked ice?

Simon Difford Verified User Premium Member 4y

Thanks for bringing to my attention. This recipe and photo have multiple issues. I'll fix by end of this week - 20/May/22.
