This frozen mojito is a super refreshing summer concoction. Its name, the Esmeralda <\/em>Frozen Mojito, comes from its bright beautiful emerald color. Esmeralda <\/em>means emerald in Spanish and I promise this is a true gem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week was busier than ever. Today, we just picked more than 80 pounds of tomatoes from our kitchen garden<\/a>. So, I already know my weekend will be busier than ever, canning and canning<\/a> again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s super hot outside and after all the hard work I feel like partying. For me, that means mojito time! All we need to refresh ourselves is a so a green frozen mojito, the so-called emerald mojito, made in a blender! Bingo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Esmeralda<\/em> Frozen Mojito was featured on Shecky\u2019s New York City Life<\/em>.  I checked up the recipe and realized this is pretty much the same blend mojito that is in the cocktail menu of Zafra Gourmet & Ron.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zafra <\/em>is the al fresco<\/em> restaurant at the Hacienda Santa Teresa in my home country, Venezuela. At the Hacienda, they distill and age some of the best rum a\u00f1ejos<\/em> in the world, all of them distinguished with the Appellation Contr\u00f4l\u00e9 Ron de Venezuela.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
