Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I don’t know about you, but if there is ever a reason to drink a good mojito, this is a great time for it. Even if you own no ‘green’, you can wear it with your pretty and delicious cocktail spirit in hand!
Taking the traditional iced mojito to the next level, here is a simple way to put a fun & lighter spin on that ordinary recipe.
JELL-O Mojito

3 hour total (for freezing)
Ingredients
1 c. boiling water
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Sugar-Free JELL-O Lime flavor gelatin

2 Tbsp. limejuice
Directions
ADD boiling water to gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in remaining ingredients.
